Tony 10 years experience helping NZ improve their driving skills, just 3yrs in Manawatu, so you might not know me yet.
In 2010, we invested in the world's leading driving simulators from Europe, modified for NZ roads, right hand drive, auto & manual.

Why use a simulator? -Students learn 3x faster, up to 66% safer in the first 2 dangerous years, cost effective, save your car & nerves.
Plus it's environmentally friendly & the best investment you can make for your's or your child's future.

Our Vehicles- You may have seen us on road in our blue Mini Cooper= 6 speed tiptronic auto (called Horse} and recently in Mille, our manual Blue Nissan March, If you do, please be patient when we have our L Plates on display. Tooting and overtaking are not necessary and usually dangerous.

My Aim /Results: 97% of my students pass the restricted test first time (compared to 43% for Manawatu or 55% NZ wide) for the last 9 years.
The aim is for students to take responsibility for their actions, be competent and confident driving anywhere, in any weather, day & night. I explain and show why & how, then they practice in 100% safety. Simple techniques help students understand on road skills.

Don't wait any longer, no more arguments with parents/kids, no embarrassment- let me help you to move forward.
******See my Grab one deals running for October to save further.****

Missed out in August?

Historic Caccia Birch House in Hokowhitu, Palmerston North is open for viewing on some Sunday afternoons in October so come along and experience the beautiful handcrafted rimu timber panelling and elegant chandeliers along with the extensive history of the property.

We will be open on the following days at these times:

Sunday 6th October 1:00pm - 4:00pm
Sunday 13th October 1:00pm - 4:00pm
Sunday 20th October 1:00pm - 4:00pm
Sunday 27th October 1:00pm - 4:00pm

Explore the house and gardens, learn about the past owners and how the house was rescued from dereliction and destruction in the eighties by PNCC and many supporters. Then brought back to life in the nineties to become a thriving venue with stories of the past to tell.

The Coach House will be open, displaying the history archives throughout the old stables.

This is also a good time to view the venue if you are planning on holding a wedding or function. Feel free to approach our friendly staff for a chat or pick up one of the brochures from the foyer that contain all information on making a booking.

Extensive care has been put into the preservation of the buildings - so we love to share the experience of yesteryear with visitors.

We are open to the public and entry is free!

We look forward to seeing you there!

I have just returned from PN expecting to have my appt at 9.15am to be told they sent me a letter cancelling appt, last Wednesday. Letter has not arrived yet and neither has the phone call she said was made. Hopefully checking and rechecking will save you the WOFTAM trip I have just had.
