--- Quote ---35 hours now in 2010, card starts in 2010 lasts until 2015 and you have to do the stuff all over again.
7 hours over next 5 years, card starts in 2015 and you can drive for 5 years, and expires in 2020, so in theory by doing 7 hours each year you save yourself alot of money.

if you have had your psv/lgv since last year then you get grandfather rights, so the you don't need to all the courses till 2014 but if you do all 35 hours before then it last till 2019. but you can do another 35 hours after that (say the week after) and you add another 5 years to it (2024)

"But, and here's the rub, it's not just a one-off, you pay out every year to keep hold of your respective licence."
If its a necessary work related cost can you claim for tax relief, the same way we can claim an allowance for boots, tools etc?

Are you sure as the way my trainer was saying, was that the moment you did the 35 hours, your 5 years started from that point. You are right in that you dont need to do the courses until 2014 but companies are starting the 7 hour lesons each year now instead of a huge payment in 4 years time.

its still a big crock of pooh! ill probably end up shelling out for it myself which is not a happy thought..id rather spend the money on shiny bits for the landy!

what they dont tell you is you can sit exactly the same course 5 times and it still counts , the content does not need to vary, which sort of makes a mockery of the whole thing anyway
out of curiousity how much is everyone being charged for the 7 hour teabreak?
