Nout wrong with learning in a derv mate, easier and less harder to stall.

I think pretty much all instructors use dervs now. I think what he meant though was that he's learning in a derv and will br practicing in a petrol.

I did exactly the same and it wasn't too bad

Learned in a 1.4 derv mk6 Fiesta, practiced in a 1.1 Saxo

Oh and you can't go on the Motorway as a learner among other things.

Do what i'm doing..
Provisional.. get it on your mums insurance with you as an added driver,
i went with quinn and got a quote for £542,
learnt to drive in it for 5 month passed my test, insurance then went upto £1800, but you can cancel the policy at any time with quinn so do that, only paid £200 for insurance. Then got a new quote from churchill at £1500 on my own policy with my mum as an added driver! Cheap as.
