Small car driving school with dual-control cars in Birmingham

About this business

Learner drivers across south Birmingham are taught by this small school's five instructors, working from a leased suburban office. It started in 2023. Turnover has slipped from £204k to £180k and adjusted EBITDA from £38k to £34k, a gentle decline. The office is used mostly for admin, so the school could relocate easily. A buyer with teaching experience could take it on for £140k and work to win back lesson volume.

Key investment highlights

  • Dual-control cars
  • Asking price £140k
  • Five instructors
  • Could relocate easily

Reason for sale

The owner is returning to a corporate career and cannot run the school alongside it.
