I would like to “highly recommend” Graham from Get Driving Today.
I want to share with you my son Philip’s story, Philip is 27 years old and has an
Autistic Spectrum Disorder and had been trying to learn to drive on and off since August 2013.
He had worked his way through 5 different Driving Instructors, failed his
Practical Driving Test twice and even made a costly, unfortunate mistake when booking his test. On one occasion, he inadvertently booked a test at Bury St. Edmunds instead of Bury, Lancashire!
I had been unwell suffering from anxiety and depression for quite a few years and wasn’t able to support Philip in his quest to learn to drive.
In July 2021, having now fully recovered and in a position to support Philip in
“fulfilling his dream” of passing his driving test I set about trying to find the “perfect” Driving Instructor for Philip, someone who could understand Philip’s
Autistic Spectrum Disorder (although Philip is very high functioning)
Someone who has compassion, patience and a willingness to adapt driving lessons to suit Philip’s style of learning.
I had to find the “needle in a haystack”, what a challenge!
I contacted The Association of Disability Driving Instructors and a very helpful gentleman listened to me talk about Philip and said “Graham Evans is the man you need”.
I contacted Graham straight away and although his diary was already full with current learners he immediately said without any hesitation that he wanted to take Philip on.
He came out to meet Philip & I and listened carefully to all that we had to say about Philip’s needs. He very quickly got the measure of Philip’s current driving skills and lessons began immediately.
Yesterday, 26th November 2021, I am delighted to say that Philip passed his Driving Test. It was a very emotional day, Philip, Graham and all our family are “over the moon” that Philip has finally achieved his ambition.
Over the years Philip has shown great perseverance, hard work, determination and an attitude of “never give up” but this wasn’t enough, it took Graham Evans to get Philip over the finishing line and we are all indebted to him for this.
Graham is a very kind, patient and lovely man. He is very much on the side of those who have the odds stacked against them. He is a brilliant Driving Instructor and I have no hesitation in recommending Graham to one and all!

Please with provided services
My dad and I went in to purchase a car for him and we had a really pleasant experience to buy our car from this company. The gentleman that helped us pick the car was called Alireza, thanks to him we felt comfortable with our choice as he was very honest and helpful in regards to all the information he presented us with, about the car, the process and all the extra services that were available to choose from. We also spoke to his manager Mr Hamid and he had a conversation with us, it was a really enjoyable visit with a great ending result and pleasure to meet Mr Hamid who we learned so much from. I'd definitely recommend this place as a trusted place that will give the ease of mind to buy a nice luxurious car hassle free.

We now have Andy’s number stored in our phone and any future work, we will go straight to him rather than considering anyone else.
If you need any work doing, we wouldn’t hesitate in recommending!!!!!!!
