Paid DAS in full and didn't receive my full course, was told constantly there was no test dates so I went elsewhere and got a test date instantly and passed. Still haven't received a refund after sitting no mod2 lessons or tests with Route 66, not very helpful tbh.

I had my CBT by Route 66 2 years ago and had no hesitation to re do it today. I’ve also went on to booking my DAS as I trust Route 66 the whole way to get me ready. Tom done my CBT today, he was chatty, nice and a thorough instructor. With so many schools around these days, Route 66 has the spirit of community, high ratings, high pass marks (Just check the brick wall inside) and a cool HQ with a cafe! Seriously, if your looking to learn in any way, I recommend these guys 100 percent.

I was trained here by the lovely Chuck a few years ago and passed my full motorcycle test. It was initially very difficult to get just a few lessons from them (via email), because they want you to pay for the full set, but I went and saw them, spoke with the boss and came to an agreement to go mid-way. Was glad I did at the end-up. Don't email - go see them instead. Would recommend to anyone in North & South Lanarkshire over any other school in the central belt.

Scottish Aviator
