Driving lessonsMulhuddart
The Mulhuddart test centre is a two minute drive away, so the roads around it can feature in your lessons long before you book a date. We collect you at your door and bring you back after.
Why learners in Mulhuddart pick us
Choosing a driving school in Mulhuddart comes down to a few plain things. Here is what you get with us, from the first lesson to the day of your test.
Collected from your door
There is no rail station near Mulhuddart, so getting to a lesson can be the hard part. We pick you up at home, at school in Tyrrelstown or at work, and the price covers it.
Approved instructors, tester trained
Your instructor holds RSA Approved Driving Instructor status and learned the job from former driving testers. The car has dual controls, so the instructor can step in if needed.
Calm from the first minute
Nobody raises their voice in our cars. If you are nervous, your first lesson can begin right outside your house in Mulhuddart, and we go at whatever pace suits you.
A straight answer on readiness
With the test centre so close, it is tempting to book early. We tell you honestly if you are ready, and if you are not, we name exactly what still needs work.
Manual or automatic
Both are available in Mulhuddart for EDT and pretest. Pass in a manual and you can drive either kind of car, but an automatic pass limits your licence to automatics, code 78.
Pick your instructor
Tell us what suits you when you call and we match you with an instructor who fits. If you would prefer a woman teaching you, just ask for a female instructor.
Manual driving lessons Mulhuddart
A manual pass covers both gearbox types, so you are never stuck if the only car going is a manual. Lessons begin with clutch control and moving off smoothly, then build towards hill starts and junctions. As you progress you will drive on Blanchardstown Road North and the Snugborough Road Extension, where you practise lane choice and steady gear changes. A single manual lesson is €53.27, and the pick-up is part of it, so the full hour goes on driving rather than on getting to us.
Book manual lessons ↗Automatic driving lessons Mulhuddart
Automatic driving lessons in Mulhuddart cost €61.41 for a single hour. With no clutch to manage, you can give all your attention to mirrors, signals and position. The trade-off is the licence. An automatic pass gives you code 78, which keeps you in automatic cars until you pass again in a manual. The EDT course in an automatic is €659.24, and pretest with car hire is €193.81.

Mulhuddart driving lesson prices
One price list covers every area, Mulhuddart included. There is no booking fee and no card kept on file, and you can pay online or over the phone.
EDT lessons in Mulhuddart
EDT is the set of 12 lessons you must finish with an Approved Driving Instructor before you can sit the test. Each one is signed off in your logbook as you complete it. In Mulhuddart the manual course costs €587.95 and the automatic course €659.24, with collection from your door on every lesson.
With the test centre two minutes away, your later EDT lessons can take in the roads around it well before the test is booked. If you hold certain foreign licences, you may only need the shorter six lesson version, so mention it when you book.
What the EDT covers ↗Your test at the Mulhuddart centre
The Mulhuddart test centre is 0.9 km by road, about 2 minutes away. If its waiting list is long, Finglas is 10 km and around 12 minutes, Tallaght is 15.8 km at around 16 minutes, and Killester is 19.3 km at around 21 minutes. A centre further out may offer an earlier date, and we can teach you there just as well.
Pretest is one hour on the roads around whichever centre you choose, followed by car hire for the test. You sit the test in the same car you practised in, so the seat, mirrors and controls already feel familiar. It costs €183.63 in a manual and €193.81 in an automatic.
Learning on Mulhuddart roads
Early lessons start close to home and stay simple: moving off, stopping, and turning left and right. Once you are comfortable, lessons take in Clonee Road and Blanchardstown Road North, and you start linking those skills together over a longer drive. Each lesson builds on the last, and your instructor tells you at the end what the next one will cover.
If home is not the easiest place to start, we can collect you somewhere else. Mulhuddart Community Centre works well as a meeting point, and so does SuperValu, Tyrrelstown Plaza. Students at Blakestown Community School or Rath Dara Community College can be picked up from college, with the lesson ending back at home.
Corduff is the nearest area to Mulhuddart, at 1.4 km, with Blanchardstown at 2.3 km. We teach in both on the same prices and with the same instructors, and each has its own page on this site, as does Castleknock. Wherever you start from, you can still choose the Mulhuddart test centre if it suits you best.

The EDT: a guide
Your EDT logbook is the record of your 12 lessons, and your instructor signs each one as it is done. Keep it with you in the car. By the time the last page is signed, the roads near the Mulhuddart test centre should feel familiar, and the faults listed on the test sheet will hold fewer surprises.
What we teach ↗ All lesson prices ↗A few good questions.
How close is the nearest driving test centre to Mulhuddart?
The Mulhuddart centre is 0.9 km by road, roughly 2 minutes. Finglas is next at 10 km, about 12 minutes. You can apply for either one, and a centre further away may have an earlier date.
Can you collect me if I have no way to get to a lesson?
Yes. Pick-up and drop-off from your home, school or workplace in Mulhuddart are part of the lesson price. You do not need a lift or a bus to reach us, and the hour you pay for is spent driving.
Can my pretest be at the Mulhuddart centre?
Yes. You get an hour with your instructor on the roads around the centre, and the fee includes hiring the car for the test itself. If you apply to Finglas or Tallaght instead, we run the pretest there.
If I pass in an automatic, can I drive a manual?
No. An automatic pass gives a code 78 licence, which covers automatic cars only. To drive a manual you would need to pass the test in one. A manual pass, by contrast, lets you drive both.
