Teenage driving.

I would love any advice from those who have gone before about learning to drive etc. We applied for a provisional license for my son and this is still ongoing (nearly a year now although the dvla say they have all the information required and it is in the hands of the medical team) then I understand he will need an assessment (we are fairly close to a William Merritt centre) but then after that I know very little. Personally we expect that our son will be ok in just an automatic but if he needs other adaptations how do we get him lessons. Would we need to buy a car get adaptions done and then hire someone to teach him in that car. I’m expecting that insurance will be extremely expensive does anyone have any advice there and also we have put some money away to help with his first car but would he be better to use motobility, personally we have always just purchased second hand cars as a family.
Many thanks for any advice
