You have a few options for the car you will teach in. You can use the car you currently own or purchase a new vehicle and simply install dual controls.
Alternatively, you can lease a car from an authorised car company or a specialised driving instructor company. If the car is leased from a driving instructor company, it is likely you will not need to install dual controls.
Please feel free to contact us to find out more about the available options.
