Murtaza Hayat1350 days agoI took my driving lessons in a manual car with Mr Sarfraz and I can only speak positively about him. I started my first ever driving lesson with Sarfraz and did around 30 lessons with him, during these lessons Sarfraz was very calm, patient and positive towards me and had full belief in me that I would pass my driving test.
