My car

My 8th teaching car is a hybrid (petrol/electric-powered) Fiat 500 with manual gearbox.

This model's proven reliability has kept it selling well since 2007.  It's perhaps smaller than the first car you're likely to get, but still spacious enough.  See its main controls.

Any experience you've had in an automatic car will help you stay aware of other road users while now learning to manually change gears, and ultimately enjoy a bigger selection of cars you'll be able to drive after passing your test.

The car has a lot of modern safety features.  Here are some advantages I’ve found.
