What car is best to learn in?

Answer 1

There isn't one really. Most instructors choose small to medium size cars as they are cheeper to run, easier to gauge space in and cheaper to insure. However, some have poor rear visibility for reversing, awkward driving position and poor mechanics, some are overpowered or over complicated. Whatever they're like you'll get used to it. But, an overpowered car will be harder to control, keep the engine size & bhp low.
