To recognise our fabulous August visitor numbers we asked some of our contacts to offer our readers something as an Edinburgh Reporter Reward.
Our unique users in August were over 100,000 which is an amazing number of people – and two and a half times the number of people reading our site in January 2013!
Today the Edinburgh Reporter Reward we have on offer is two hours free tuition from driving School Compass ProDrive – for two winners not just one!
What you have to do is send us an email to theedinburghreporter@gmail.com with Edinburgh Reporter Rewards in the subject line giving us the answer Compass ProDrive.
This will tell us that you have read this article and you would like to win today’s reward. The winner will be drawn from the entries received by Saturday 21 September 2013 at 5:00pm.
At Compass ProDrive they like to do things a little differently and now they have a new car to do it in. Steve Jackson of Compass told us about the sparkly new car:-
“It’s a 1.2 litre Vauxhall Corsa and we chose it as it’s basically an easy car to drive and an ideal first time car for new drivers. It”s cheap, safe, economical, easy to insure and from a functional perspective very straight forward to get to grips with. Its also spacious for both parties to fit comfortably, and as a result when it comes to technical aspects of driving the visibility is a big plus point.
“I will be driving this particular car, but a second car will be liveried up soon and it will be exactly the same. From a business perspective we both can drive the cars as a fail safe in case one car is out of commission and a test is looming then we will always be able to fulfil our commitments to our pupils.
“The special thing about this car is that it is easy to drive and from a teaching perspective its visibility and space inside was a huge plus factor plus Vauxhall gave us the best deal!
Our philosophy is to teach and develop new skills for drivers that will allow you to become a safer and responsible contributor to our roads in a friendly and patient environment.
Our fully trained ADI and IAM professional instructors will provide you with a personalised and individual approach to your driving career that will encourage you to become a safe, considerate and more confident driver for life.
At Compass we will provide you with a personalised lesson and progress plan that will allow you to keep track of your practical and personal development during your course. This will allow us to highlight strengths and weaknesses in your progression so as to allow us to improve and strengthen all areas that you will be taught in. By applying this method it will enable us to make changes to your lesson plans to maximise your chances of passing your driving test.
