    Makes no difference as long as it's road legal.

    Dual controls & school cars make no difference. Depends what modifications have been made. Legality is obvious. But they don't have equipment to test noise levels, window tints. These can be refused on the testers opinion. Tyres, wheels & low bodies can just make it harder to drive smoothly.

    Make sure the car is clean inside and everything is working break lights and the discs are in date. If the inside is standard enough it should do. Your entitiled to drive as long as you are insured. Make sure to have a light foot :D. The power might be impressive out of those yokes but the driving instructor might not appreciate the turbo whistle much.

    Also the tip I was told. Put a shopping bag in the car so the tester thinks its a mummys car. Might not work in this case..... :D
