Driving test/lesson question (idk what to title this 😬)

Hi, I failed my first driving test in July (my nerves got the best of me) and I moved for Uni a few weeks ago, so i brought my next driving test booking with me. I'm completely capable of driving and, other then parking infront of driveways, my test was fine, but I still failed. Because i've moved, i need to book a new instructor, i haven't drove since i failed and i don't have a car i can use for the test. I've been looking and i just don't know what to ask or what to apply for. I don't technically need lessons but i do need a car, and having a refresh can't hurt. Do i just apply for lessons as usual, or do i need to do something else?

Up to you. It's been a few months, so I would potentially get lessons.

If no,t then Arnold Clarke do dual control hire cars, so if you've got a suitably qualified mate, they may be able to supervise you whilst you get to grips with the car.
