Very good course highly recommended
Well constructed moving from theory to practice and reinforcing the key points. Good practice on paddock side and then into practice on the bush tracks.
FANTASTIC
Practical and enjoyable. Very informative.
Fabulous Course
Clearly delivered, so much detail given to cover so many possibilities. Excited about gaining confidence in the vehicles potential and my capabilities. Also covered so many safety aspects. Thank you for a well delivered course.
Great course, good to learn the ‘why” of everything. I gained confidence when I wasn’t sure I would actually feel confident to participate – but I did. Could have done with a bit more shade in the morning. We enjoyed our day.
I’ve learned so much. Explanations very clear. Wonderful patience. Thank you!
Thoroughly enjoyed it
Feel more confident with my knowledge of my 4×4 and its capabilities. Thank you

Got a lot more out of it than I thought I would.

There is heaps of info online BUT from XDrive and Stephen you have information coming from an authority
The amount of people on the course was great. Information and skills learned that were able to be applied on the day was great.
Excellent practical evaluation of own car and advice. Good practical tips and visual demonstrations.
Stephen had an excellent knowledge of my vehicle. I’d like to repeat the practical exercises, the rain was an issue. (The tracks used didn’t replicate what I’ve encountered in reality)
Hello Stephen, Thank you so much for everything on Thursday. Although it did push me out of my comfort zone I thoroughly enjoyed it, and so did Clive. He was very surprised that there was so much more to 4 wheel driving than just flicking over a switch. The adrenaline was still going when we left you and we ended up going left instead of right but soon realized our error, did a u turn and came back down the mountain without getting lost:) My major disappointment is that I completely forgot to take photos. Nobody will ever believe that we came down that track and then back up one that was equally challenging. Lol!
We do have the certificates that you sent so that is our proof so thank you also for that. We are now in Maroochydore having a bit of r and r for a few days.
If any of our friends are interested in that course we will definitely recommend you.

The knowledge and experi�nce and Stephen’s ability to transfer his knowledge to the participants so they understood the capability of our vehicle. I don’t think this course could be improved. It was tailored to our experience, needs and vehicle. FANTASTIC!
Denise O
The practical component made me feel more confident and the theoretical side was good for learning more of the capabilities of my car. Lots of good tips. Would recommend. Practical and clear explanations. Really enjoyed our one-on-one training session and feel confident to start 4W driving!

Lots of practical experience. Stephen gave a lot of tips. Useful to learn recovery.
Great confidence builder. Plenty of practice of the skills, introduced in a gradual way. I was doing things at the end of the day that I wouldn’t have been contemplating at the start.
Chris B
Everything was thoroughly explained before being asked to go ahead on the course track, including how and why things may go wrong, as well as alternatives to do the same thing in a different scenario. The course was absolutely excellent. We couldn’t ask for more. We actually gained even more than expected. Thank you so much for taking us out at such short notice. We’ll take it slow and hopefully do you proud!
