What Equipment for an ADI or PDI

[@mariavaz3868]

Thank you so much for this video, very helpful as I'm considering becoming a driving instructor:)

[@umarpervaz2857]

Hello Josh. I'm glad I came across your channel. I'm currently on training for the ADI part 3. Its been a fun process so far. Your channel is amazing. Subscribed

Gone for Ford Fiesta 1.0 eco boost. Very happy with it although probably not the most economical

[@JoshRamwell]

What mpg does it do?

[@chrisbaxter5041]

I'm a new PDI chose the VW Polo dsg automatic fitted with He-Man dual controls which cost £500 I have a nice flat secondary mirror and eye check mirror from a company called grade 6 supplies. I've also fitted blind spot mirrors called frog eyes from a company called magnum. I also have a heads up display to keep an eye on the speed. Signed up with total drive also Great video as always 👍

[@JoshRamwell]

You sound fully prepared chris! Thank you!

[@cmd2709]

Found total drive myself, it looks awesome

[@JoshRamwell]

Yes massively helps with my day yo day!

[@poisonivy9141]

hi Josh . I was wondering if you could do a video on pass plus , what it is and how that exactly works please

[@JoshRamwell]

Really great idea ivy

[@AKAMustang]

Very useful video, I'm not a driving instructor but have a few more suggestions. 1. Student progress logbook* 2. Run flats or puncture repair kit 3. Coat/jumper and warning triangle incase of breakdown 4. Books/drawings/toy cars to explain/demo with * I know apps were mentioned, but if you're rocking a basic diary/calendar I'd assume you'd also want somewhere to log progress.

[@JoshRamwell]

Exactly Mustang that's again why I use total drive.

[@AdventuresWithLilu]

Josh..im a bit confused, currently buying a fiesta ecoboost to start training...do i need personal AND ADI car insurance? Or do u end the personal once u qualify??? Great vids!!

[@WASYMIQ]

And also can you please let us know about fees and charges and mishaps during instructor work.

[@TheWeepingDalek]

might not be related. but my windscreen sticker with the adi badge has lost its stickiness and I cannot find anywhere to replace it. any ideas. currently got sellotape on windscreen.

[@seberous]

Just a little thing to mention about the Duals josh, there isn't actually a type of dual where the Primary control (drivers side) doesn't move. ALL dual controls operate on cables (or bars) where the secondary set on the passenger side just pull down on the pedals in the footwell. To have a set where the drivers side pedal wouldn't move would require the car to have another master cylinder or clutch mechanism on the passenger side. The 2 types available are 'static', where when the PUPIL presses a pedal, the instructors pedals don't move, or the other type, where when the pupil presses the clutch or brake, the instructor's clutch or brake goes down at the same time. All duals are secondary controls, and just move the primary (drivers side) ones with cables or bars. Most of them are also the 'static' style.# Overall very informative, thanks for making these vids. Much appreicated. Oh, and the corsa probably had an Aluminium bonnet to save weight, so would't be magnetic 😉

[@JoshRamwell]

Very informative thank you Seberous! While we ar eon the topic should I buy an audi a3 as my next car or would you recommend something else?

[@seberous]

@@JoshRamwell if you think it would suit you, then go for it. Bound to be reliable. Base it off the comfort, ease of driving (for a learner of course) and most importantly the economics of owning it, specifically how much is it going to cost you. If it's viable crack on. Buy whatever you'll enjoy teaching in, fits the bill, and suits your pupils I'd say. So many cars out there. There isn't a perfect vehicle for everyone or every single profession.

[@ryanoconnor3481]

Loving your video really informative and direct. I'm now doing my part 2 and have been overloading on videos about becoming a driving instructor and was really positive and enthusiastic but am starting to worry if perhaps I've bitten off more than I can chew? Am I going to be able to do this? Feeling very overwhelmed with how much to learn and how hard it is to pass! Is this normal to self doubt?

[@JoshRamwell]

Completely normal Ryan. Don't stress my friend. I was the same but luckily I had a super supportive wife to keep me on the straight and narrow. Join the discord right now and speak to a massive group of people in the same situation as you. Here's the link. discord.gg/XUxj9STK5E

[@sallyc7660]

Me too!! I passed my part 1 this week. It seems a bit daunting at times!!

[@aaBb-ji5tu]

Any idea where I can purchase that large stick on mirror? Thanks

[@JoshRamwell]

Check amazon?

[@jamesmiles1328]

Great video very informative 👍,I’m gathering your sponsored by Aldi and Halfords lol,so does that mean I can buy loads of red bull crisps and chocolate for lunch and claim money back ?,see your dog had to get some limelight of you to lol,definitely the best driving instructor you tuber about,but watch the space I start in March and are coming for you !!!,

[@JoshRamwell]

Haha thanks Miles really appreciate it. No sponsors, just love Aldi, might be an idea though🤔. I look forward to March! I'll help you get your feet on the ground. 😁

[@jamesmiles1328]

[@bensandry5098]

What car do you use now ??

[@JoshRamwell]

Golf TDI 1.6, love it❤️❤️❤️

[@spiderdlh9905]

Great video found everything I was wanting to know from first comment just 1 thing how old of a car can I use

[@JoshRamwell]

Any age spider there is no limit. As long a sits not a soft top the world is your oyster. Mine is 2016 my adi friends is 2010. Its what works for you. I would not choose. A petrol though as the amount of fuel will be crippling.

[@spiderdlh9905]

@@JoshRamwell ah right OK I've already got a 60 plate ford fiesta so that should be perfect to get started thank you so much for your help I really appreciate it means a lot there should be more people like you 🙂

[@daveboytrotter]

I have just passed Part 1 so studying for Part 2 now.I have a company van so have some bad habits re centre mirror not there. How old a car would you suggest for teaching? I'm considering a low mileage Fiesta 63 plate around £8k?

[@JoshRamwell]

That would be perfect. The car doesn't matter and no student has ever complained or questioned about what car it will be. You just want something reliable and if manual diesel as you will use a lot of fuel.

[@mustafaalmandlawi1230]

Hello If i pass ADI part 2 and I apply for trainee driving instructor license can i teach student? Thank you ❤

[@JoshRamwell]

Yes but you can only get pink badge with a sponsor which is a driving instructor or a driving school

[@bensandry5098]

Hi Josh , I’ve just passed part 1 and I’m going for a Citroen Ds3 65plate for £8k 👍

[@JoshRamwell]

Great option if you are happy with it ben. Congratulations on part 1.😁🙌

[@Baloovanz]

My instructor Ranj from DGN said he met you in Wolverhampton i bet that was him 🤣

[@JoshRamwell]

Yes that was in deed. He's what motivated me to start a KZbin channel🤣

[@Baloovanz]

@@JoshRamwell haha fair play mate. Small world ay!

[@emilyisaac5284]

[@JoshRamwell]

Hey my insurance is currently just under £500
