Mk6 Si Ross Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 and you have to take hgv/lgv 3 test 1st i think http://www.maunmotors.co.uk/pictures/dafcurtainp.jpg before moving onto the lgv 2 (rigid licence) then of course lgv 1 (articulated lorry) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry-334 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 I went from a standard car licence (3.5 tonne), to a LGV2, which lets me drive upto 30 tonne (rigid) - no trailers etc.as said, total lost around £1000, but you have to do another theory/hazard perception. hope this helps...

noah_swann Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 if you are over 21 you can go straight into raining for the class 2 (7.5t and above) if under, you'll have to do a 7.5t test then the class 2 (although you only ned to do one theory) i think the bill for my training was £1300 but thats including the retest cos i failed 1st time round! without the retest i think it was about £1050 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
