Well...When you put it like that mate , and £200 Rich sounds good to me
Got my maths wrong, should be £160 (2 exams). Anyway £200 OK by me and either venue is fine. Leicester is marginally closer to me.

Go for the refresher course as londg as you take it more than 6 weeks before expiry it is a lot less expensiveMy ADR expires in June and I may have cut it a little fine to book refresher training.
If I remember correctly, ADR course costs £1650+VAT (core and explosives) for 3 days and can take up to 16 candidates. There are 2 exams required at £20 each per candidate inclusive.
This is through a company in Somerset, I would imagine cost to be similar to that of other training companies, but would the views be so nice?

That sounds like a good thing, is it recognised by insurance companies and the highways agency/police and alike?ADR is a (positive) endorsement on your driving licence to say that you are competent to drive a vehicle loaded with dangerous goods. (Explosives in our case!)

Part 3 doesn't go into much detail! but it certainly won't do any harm to do the course, anyone know what is regarded as commercial quantities? so subject to date and location i,d be interested.Hi Steve,
ADR is the law. If you are carrying commercial quantities of hazardous goods, then you must have the appropriate training.
For more information about the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road, then visit the UNECE website.

The Carriage of Dangerous Goods and Use of Transportable Pressure Equipment Regulations 2007 set out the exemptions and UK implementation of ADR. In particular relevance to us: 50 kg 1.3G or 500 kg 1.4G are defined as the threshold.

Those threshold amounts are NEQ, not gross weight.
If NEQ means what i think it does 50kg is quite a lot and 500kg is more than enough for a small cat3 display!!
