Im with BSM, im on my 5th lesson and already doing roundabouts and the dual carriage ways :p

They are very good indeed. The corsa's are weedy, but the tuition is superb.

I think initially, you won't notice stuff like how well it drives as you're far more focused on your own driving. However, once your driving becomes second nature, you'll start to notice things like how the car feels, handles, drives etc.

The Corsa was horrible, the dashboard creaked, the seating position was uncomfortable, it was slow and struggled up hills and I tried chucking it around a corner during my Pass Plus and I was like 'oh ****' - it was a brown trouser moment.

FULLY star your swearing.

The BSM instructor that I had was one of the most rude, arrogant, and smelly chap I've ever met.

Wouldn't go back there in a hurry.
 
tbh I wouldn't be surprised if BSM got these corsas at extremely discounted rates, think about all the suckers that leave bsm when they pass and think, hmm which car shall I get, I know! a corsa I learnt in one so I am used to it, why change?

Suckers.
 
I phonned a couple of local instructors that people had recommended to me. Went with a local company that has 3 cars. £20 per hour and i'm learning in a 55reg 3dr fiesta zetec. Not sure which engine buts its a petrol.

I'd say go with a local company
 
I my friend has a 16v 1.4 one and when first in it I thought "jebus this is fast" then realised that it was actually the hideous ride quality, clutch being about as subtle as a breeze block and shifting along very loudly at 90 that made it seem a lot faster than it was.

Don't get me wrong it is fairly capable with that engine as it is a lightweight car but in terms of comfort and drivability for the money you can do so much better.
