Here's the real cost from the official gov.uk lorry test fees and CPC pages, plus how HGV Academy makes it affordable and hassle-free.
DVSA fees (per gov.uk)
- Theory multiple choice: £26
- Hazard perception: £11

Training on top
Fees alone are around £280–£330. Add real training hours with an instructor, vehicle hire and a theory kit and a typical Class 2 course lands around £1,800–£2,400 and Class 1 around £2,800–£3,500.
How HGV Academy sorts it hassle-free
- External finance through Ideal4Finance - apply online or by phone. A credit check is required, finance is subject to status and the rate depends on your circumstances. Once approved and funded, course dates can be arranged, so this is normally the quicker pay-monthly route to your licence.
- 0% in-house finance - £800 starter payment followed by 3 equal monthly instalments. There is no interest, lender or credit check, but practical lessons and CPC 3a/3b tests are booked after the final payment, so this route takes longer.
- One transparent price covers medical, theory, tests, training.
- Optional Pass Protection covers retest fees.
How to apply for finance
