Our 2016 VW Jetta is Now Available For Manual Transmission Training

West Coast Driver Training and Coastal Pathways Driver Training recently purchased a 2016 VW Jetta with a 5 speed manual transmission which we intend to use for providing clients with training on Manual Transmission vehicles.

It is now available for Manual Transmission training.

As far as we are aware, there are no other Driving Schools on Vancouver Island providing Class 5 and Class 7 training on cars equipped with manual transmissions.

Our 2026 VW Jetta is currently at Mark’s Instant Sign Shop awaiting the application of our corporate decals but it is still available for training if necessary.

We recently had the required gas/brake/clutch controls installed on the passenger side of the VW Jetta. This was done at H & M Auto Repair, which services and maintains all our cars and the Ford E450 bus we use for Class 4 Unrestricted training.
