Real routes, real marking
We run your mock test on genuine local test routes and mark it against the RSA fault categories (grade 1, 2 and 3), so the result means something. See how test faults work.

What you get
A mock test that works like the real one
Fix what would have failed you
After the mock, we work the exact junctions, manoeuvres and observation habits that cost you marks, not a generic lesson.
The paperwork & the day itself
Tell-me-show-me questions, what the examiner says, what to bring. We walk through it all so nothing on test day is a surprise. See the full test day guide and checklist.
Test car rental
Need a car for the test? Use ours for €170.
Test car rental includes a 1–1.5 hour warm-up and polishing lesson before your appointment and last-minute tips from your instructor. If you've done your pre-test lessons in the same car, you walk in already at home behind the wheel, with your mirrors set and the biting point known before you start. Testing at Tallaght? See test car hire at the Tallaght centre. We hire test cars at the Leixlip centre too.
Local knowledge
We coach on the routes you'll actually be tested on
Tallaght
Two instructors here: Kris knows the Tallaght centre inside out and can meet you directly at the centre for mock tests in the exact test area. Tony, our pre-test specialist, covers Tallaght too, including in your own automatic. More on pre-test lessons in Tallaght.
Mulhuddart
Tudor and Liam prepare you for Mulhuddart's bus-lane merges, road markings and D15 roundabouts, the details that catch people out at the newer centre. Call Tudor on 087 341 7401 or Liam on 087 811 5075.
Killester & Finglas
Maurice prepares north Dublin learners for both centres, in a fully electric automatic. Raheny's centre has closed and its tests moved to Killester. Call Maurice on 086 367 7182.
Finglas, Navan & beyond
Harry preps North County learners for Finglas on 087 244 7222; Liam covers the Navan centre on 087 811 5075. Whatever centre you're booked into, we build the preparation around it, including with Tony, our dedicated pre-test specialist with an excellent pass record.

Pre-test lessons FAQ
What happens in a pre-test lesson?
A two-hour session run like the real thing: a full mock test on genuine local test routes, marked against the RSA fault categories, followed by targeted correction of exactly what would have failed you. From €110.
Can I do my pre-test in my own car?
Yes. If you have your own automatic car, Tony, our pre-test specialist, can run lessons, mock tests and pre-test preparation in it. Practising in the exact car you'll bring to the test is a real advantage. Call Tony on 085 733 5950, or use the booking form and mention your own automatic in the message.
Can I rent a car for my driving test?
Yes. Test car rental is €170 and includes a 1–1.5 hour warm-up and polishing lesson before your test and last-minute tips from your instructor. The car is familiar to you if you've done pre-test lessons in it, a real advantage on the day.
Which test centres do you cover?
Kris specialises in the Tallaght test centre and can meet you directly there. Tudor and Liam cover the Mulhuddart centre routes. We also prepare learners for Finglas and other Dublin centres, and Liam covers the Navan centre.
How many pre-test lessons do I need?
It depends on your current standard. Many learners take two or three pre-test sessions; the first mock test tells us honestly where you stand, and we'll never push sessions you don't need.
How do I prepare while waiting for a test date?
The wait is different at every Dublin centre and it moves every month, so check your own centre rather than a national average: here is the current wait at every Dublin test centre, rebuilt each month from the official CSO release. One thing to know before you read it — the published figure is the wait to be invited to book, and the appointment itself is some weeks later again. Use the time: keep driving regularly with your accompanying driver, book a mock test to find your weak points early, and do a final pre-test polish in the last two weeks before the test.
