A friend recommended a place in Paisley to me. Said it would be approx £500-600 from start to finish. Can't remember the name of it off the top of my head but I'll ask him for you.
I used Bike It in Paisley and aye that's about the price for package, plus cbt, plus test fees, not sure if the price has gone up a wee bit with the new format test. Depending on how many lessons they think you need dictates the price.... IIRC you can pay by single lesson, block of 10 lessons or "unlimited to first test" package.

They are sound guys and I've sent another mate there for training and he's been happy. And don't let the fact that within a month of passing my test (with no minor faults ) I came off and broke my collar bone......that's just because I'm a fanny LOL! Can't wait for it to heal so I can get back out!

You can do intensive courses of 3 days @ 6 hours a day, or do it as and when, like one two hour lesson most weekends so it took me about 4 months.
