Intensive driving courses

[Sylv]

Anyone passed through one of these before? I've inherited a little bit of money and a bit of annual leave coming up. It's got to the point where I'm nearly 25, still don't drive because I've never been bothered to and never been able to afford it, that I'm being turned away for graduate jobs.
I've been checking out some courses in the area I live (Southend-on-Sea) and they're pretty damn expensive. Around £770 for a 40hr/5 days.

Are these worth it or shall I just pay for a few blocks over 'x' amount of time?

Hmm getting married next year, the wife to be would like to use the money for a honeymoon, I'm inclined to agree, but I can't keep putting it off. I'll fish around for some more courses. I'm keen to get this out of the way..
