Getting started
Get on the road
Owning your first car
Easy ways to make it affordable.
If you're looking to buy your first car, we'll help you make it a reality. Being part of the RAC means we can offer you special deals on everything you'll need to get you on the road.
Save on a new Astra or Corsa
Fancy owning a car like the one you're learning in? When you pass your Practical Test with BSM, you'll get a special discount of £500 when you buy a brand new Vauxhall Astra or Corsa. Just call us on 0845 450 8229* and quote your BSM number.
Cut the cost of insurance
RAC Insurance can help you get the best insurance at the cheapest price. Like their Rapid Bonus car insurance that's designed especially for drivers aged between 17 and 29 to help you build up a no-claims discount quickly.
Cover your legal expenses
If you're involved in an accident, you could be faced with costs like your policy excess, car hire, medical bills and solicitors' fees. Make sure you're covered with RAC expenses protection, from just £10 if you're an RAC member and £15 if you're not.
Get the car checked
If you're buying a used car, get an RAC Vehicle Check to see if it's been stolen or has outstanding finance. And make sure it's just as sound mechanically with an RAC Vehicle Examination. Pass your Practical Test with BSM and get a 10% discount.
Roadside rescue
When you book and pay for 10 or more lessons and pass your Practical Test with BSM, you'll get a year's free RAC membership. And if you buy your lessons in single transactions you will start to benefit from a 50% discount on your first year's RAC membership. That means roadside assistance 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, even if you've just run out of fuel or have a flat tyre.
