Test car hire

Test car hire for your Perth driving assessment

No car for your PDA? We lease dual-control automatic and manual cars for the test, with a 45-minute warm-up lesson first so the car feels familiar before the examiner gets in.

The process

How it works

  1. 1

    Tell us your test details

    Confirm the date, time and which licensing centre your PDA is booked at with the Department of Transport, then let us know. Please give us at least three days notice, we book out fast.

  2. 2

    45-minute warm-up lesson

    Right before the test, you get a 45-minute lesson in the car so the controls feel natural.

  3. 3

    Sit your test in our car

    We meet you at the DoT office for your centre. You drive the same car you warmed up in.

Your chances

Why a driving-school car helps

Examiners are more at ease in a car they can trust with working dual controls, and the pass rate is generally higher in a driving-school car than in a private one. You also avoid the stress of borrowing a car you are not used to on the most important drive of the week.

A few conditions

Booking conditions

  • Minimum three days notice.
  • We reserve the right to decline if a driver cannot operate the vehicle safely on the warm-up.
  • Subject to availability, so book early, especially in school holidays.
  • Available for all Perth metropolitan licensing centres.

Converting an overseas licence?

This service is open to overseas licence holders sitting the WA assessment. We strongly recommend at least a lesson or two first, because walking into the test without knowing what it involves makes it very hard to pass. Give us a call before you book the car.
