Can't comment on the courses, but it seems strange that they airbrushed out the "Ranger" on the caravan in the pics under the more course details page but left it in on the main homepage. Also they didn't take the regestration number out like a lot of people do. (Though it seems pointless to me, if someone wanted to see a regestration number there are millions of them on the roads to look at)

I hope their training is better than the web design, as basing my judgement purely on the impressions from the website, I think I would be more likely to use one of the clubs towing courses than these. Try calling them and asking them for the name and numbers of some satisfied clients you could ask for a reference.

Seems a lot to cover in half a day. The C & C C course I went on cost a lot less and was for a whole day.

If you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, just keep going till you go round the bend.

It does seem a lot to cover in half a day, I did a C C course recently and that was a busy day especially if you want to get plenty of hands on.

They are both reputable businesses so maybe they aren't putting the correct message across, simplest way is to ring them and ask. My C C course was less at £80 for the whole day, or £95 for the beginners one that was a day and a half.

Dave.
