Learn to drive an LGV between 3.5tn - 7.5tn + trailer up to 750kg.

Got your sights set on driving a Light Goods Vehicle (LGV) between 3,500kg and 7,500kg? Then this is the course for you!

Our C1/C1+E courses include everything you need to get  started in an LGV. Also known as a 7.5 tonner or Class 3, these vehicles can be used for local supermarket deliveries, removals, medical emergencies and more. You could also add on a trailer up to 750kg.

If you gained your car licence before January 1997, you will already have this entitlement on your licence. But if not, then you’ll need to undertake additional training.
