Two instructors

South West Dublin & Kildare

Kris 087 394 8102 Automatic & manual car
Tony Tallaght & surrounding areas 085 733 5950 Manual car · pre-tests · your own automatic

Covering South West Dublin and North Kildare: learner lessons, EDT, pre-test preparation and refresher driving in automatic or manual. In Tallaght and the surrounding areas, Tony, our pre-test specialist, joins Kris, which usually means an earlier start date.

📍 Outside Kris's area? Kris can meet you directly at Tallaght RSA test centre. That's a good option if you're not within his regular zone. Ideal for pre-test lessons and mock tests on the actual test routes.
