Sometimes there are places with not the best rate, this is this case but this doesn’t mean that they are giving a bad service to their customers, sometimes in the internet the people only post reviews when they are not happy with the service, so sure you’ll find a good service here too.

As Test Centres go, the Colchester one is pretty nice, it also has toilet facilities. And there is a cafe opposite , you cross the road and tea and coffee awaits along with anything you want to eat . It has plenty of space and has adequate bays for parking and one way in and one way out , brilliant ! Instructors are allowed to come into the centre to practice, there where a few practicing whilst we where waiting to go out on a Test , very chilled. The examiner we had was very pleasant.

I had Pete as my driving instructor for my second attempt. He made me feel comfortable and felt like driving with a friend, not an examiner! The conversations we had were pleasant and made my nerves go away. Failed first time to some temporary traffic lights, but am so pleased to have now passed! Thank you Pete!

This was my first test and I'm glad I passed with only a mirror fault. The examiner was very supportive, kind and patient👍 Before starting the test, I explained that my first language is not English and please repeat if I do not understand. Also my first time driving in this area and please indicate the route. That's why they deserve 5 stars. I advise you to let them know if you have any issues or need help before starting. Of course, I drove outside the UK for about 17 years and inside the UK for 1.5 years 😁

I had Martin for my test and he was lovely, very calm and friendly. I read all the reviews in the days leading up to my test and was convinced I’d fail because of the amount of bad reviews. I passed first time with 7 minors in my own car. Please do not let the reviews put you off.

Had Martin, the most lovely and kind examiner whilst still being fair. Thank you for a great test experience, made me comfortable and calm when I was nervous. I wish all examiners are like Martin :)

I had my practical driving test today. My examiner was Justin. He is a great person and explained everything at the beginning of the exam. It helped me a lot to adjust myself to the exam situation. He is a very kind and great examiner. I passed my driving test on my first attempt. Thank you so much Colchester Test Centre and Justin. If you have the examiner Justin with you, just relax, do your test, and do not overthink about the test.

Had my 3rd test with Justin. He was very professional, he introduced himself to me and even asked me how i would want him to call me, he made it feel comfortable being around him, my first 2 instructor did not mention their names and all i felt was awkwardness with the first 2 examiners I had. Thank you Justin for showing professionalism. To other examiners, please no need to be awkward, grumpy and miserable.

Had my 2nd go with Pete as my examiner. Great guy and made me feel at ease! Was nice conversing with him to help me feel relaxed. (Proof on my Apple watch, before the exam my nerves were so bad my heart rate shot up to 156bpm LOL and during the exam it was around 80-90bpm.) My first go was with Justin -also a lovely examiner! Clear and concise with instructions. The centre has toilets which was convenient and there is a nearby cafe too!

I had my driving test this week and had Justin as my examiner. I was nervous but Justin was very pleasant and made me feel at ease. His instructions were clear throughout and made my experience better than anticipated. Thank you :-)

I had my practical test at DVLA Test Centre Colchester, 14th Nov 2017. My Examiner Sam was an absolute delight, she made me feel very comfortable in the car and was very clear and open when giving instruction. She turned what can be a somewhat daunting experience into a pleasurable drive and she passed me first time. Thanks, Chris.
