# AC Auto Drive
AC Auto Drive is an automatic car driving school based in Penicuik, just south of Edinburgh, specialising in automatic transmission lessons for learner drivers across Midlothian and South Edinburgh. Run by Alastair Clark, a fully qualified DVSA-registered Approved Driving Instructor (ADI), the business offers professional tuition in a Mercedes A Class in a relaxed yet structured environment.
The school caters to learners who struggle with manual clutch and gear control, want to progress quickly through fewer lessons, or simply prefer automatic vehicles—which increasingly dominate the market as electric and hybrid cars become standard. Rather than recruit trainers still in development (PDI instructors), AC Auto Drive guarantees fully qualified instruction from someone with proven expertise and experience.
What sets AC Auto Drive apart is its comprehensive, tailored approach. Beyond basic driving tuition, they provide mock tests, theory and hazard perception coaching, intensive courses, motorway lessons, confidence boosters, and Pass Plus qualifications. The instructor prioritises one-to-one attention, building a structured plan matched to each pupil's individual pace and requirements.
The business serves learner drivers across postcodes EH10, EH13, EH14, EH16, EH19, EH20, EH21, EH22, EH24, EH25, and EH26, making it accessible to students throughout the region. Flexible booking options and multiple contact channels—email, phone, and WhatsApp—make getting started straightforward.
