How many driving lessons do I need to pass in Portsmouth?

Should I learn in a manual or automatic car in Portsmouth?

If you pass in an automatic car in Portsmouth, your UK driving licence will restrict you to automatic vehicles only. Passing in a manual car grants a full licence covering both manual and automatic cars. However, automatic lessons are increasingly popular in Portsmouth due to heavy city traffic and simpler hill-start controls.
