Den Restbetrag muss ich morgen bezahlen und am kommenden Dienstag ist meine Prüfung.
Alles Gute an alle anderen Bewerber, die sich darauf freuen, in Zukunft eine Lizenz zu bekommen 🙂
Auch dieser Subreddit hat mir sehr geholfen und ich bin äußerst dankbar

51 hours is a lot though. One should be able to do it with less. But yay for Fulda.
almost 4k, what the fuck?
In 2001 I paid 900 DM, ~500 EUR for a class B drivers license.
oof. sure glad i did it 10 yrs ago
Jesus fucking…
I got mine in 2016 and paid 1300 euros. This is so hard to achieve for teenagers whose parents are not willing or able to pay for it
It depends on the hours you have to take. 51h seems so much. 5 is minimum.
I made mine 2009 for car and motorcycle combined. It cost around 1000€ back then.
I spent less than 1000 Euros in 2006! Got super expensive.
Germany is getting ridiculous with that cost, for that i can get 2x c+ce+c95 in austria
this is cheap. In leipzig its 120 euro per lesson.
Also, its shameful the system that exists here. Complete racket. In Ireland/England you get a provisional license after a certain amount of lessons and can practice with the family car if someone is with you.
The system here is literally set up so that you are incentivised to fail and keep feeding the business.
average training lessons are 30. and normally, they combine it, at least in my city.
Aber nicht der beste Schüler 😀
Nothing compared to the costs of owning a car 😉
Barzahlung…
Would it not be cheaper to go to a US state with reciprocity, register an address, take the test there, then get it recognized in D? Just a hypothetical
Why is there different hourly rates for different streets?
Yikes, really expensive!
But I think it is good to take as many hours as you need and feel comfortable with.
My instructor teased me because I made around 30 hours and he said I could have done it sooner but I wanted to feel safer and more used to it.
Congrats!
If you are American it only cost me 125.00. That’s for the four 30-minute lessons and then the actual test. I’m always so surprised at how expensive it is here!
Classical cash-only! I don’t get it. They are holding the cash at their shop until they go to the bank. The German word is “green-debil”.
Yeey Weber! Went there too, but paid like 1500€ 20 years ago. Is Matthias still there?
I received mine in NL in 2019 and I paid upwards of 3900,- as well. Will probably be more expensive now. I wasn’t a good driver initially, but still, it was so much money.
Thats crazy – I got mine in 2017 and payed around 1800€.
well thank fuck for being able to convert my US license
Wow. In 1996 I paid 3600DM for car + motorbike license
Just to make you mad I came to Germany from New Zealand and I was able to convert my NZ licence into a German one for like 50€. In NZ you can just get your parents to teach you and the combined cost for all the tests was under 200€
Maybe Germans should go on holiday to NZ and get their licence there. It’ll probably cost the same and they get a free holiday
Tbh. Having lots of practice hours is still cheaper than having a car crash.
I think I had in total like 25 to 27 sessions. That were a lot back in 2015
Damn that’s expensive. I made my license 1998, don’t know the exact price since my parents paid it, but it was still in DM and started with a “1”, so something between EUR 500 and 900(?).
To those who think that number of lessons is too high: it is a valid opinion, but yet let’s not forget that it’s totally ok to take as many lessons as needed until you feel confident and drive safely. Paying for lessons is a very low price in contrast to a non-confident driver.
P.S. Yup, prices got wild anyway.
Well I did mine in 2004 , both motorbike and car together, was about 3400€ if I remember correctly.
But you are totally at the mercy of your instructor. If you are young and gullible, he can tell you you have to have 15 hours on top of the mandatory and enjoy the money he rakes in.
My instructor was an idiotic assface like that. He also smoked weed and fucked some of his female students… but that he was such a money grabber I learned only towards the end.
Quite lot of Übungsstunden…. But yeah, I got that cheaper years ago
When I got my drivers license back in 2007 I paid like 1.3-1.5k. But I also only did the minimum driving lessons which was 15. Did they change that number? 39 seems a bit excessive to me
Is it really expensive or is taking 50+ hours the problem here?
