With a spirit of adventure at the core of its character, the great outdoors has always been the territory of the Land Rover brand. These iconic off-roaders weren't built to sit nose-to-tail in rush-hour traffic - you need to get them off the tarmac to find out what they're really capable of. On this experience you'll tackle some challenging terrain in one of the following king of the road vehicles - a Land Rover Defender, a Discovery or a Range Rover Sport. You'll start with a thorough safety briefing before your instructor shows you around your vehicle, explaining the impressive capabilities of these 4x4s. Then get behind the wheel yourself to conquer the muddy climbs, drops and hazards of an exhilarating off-road course, in stunning surroundings. Most venues have excellent facilities, including disabled access, catering, toilets, shelter and parking. A simple lunch is included, this exciting experience is bound to give you an appetite.
After an introduction and briefing on circuit driving techniques, your personal instructor will take you out onto the circuit for some demo laps. At Everyman you'll drive for three laps in five supercars: the stunning DB9 is a modern thoroughbred sports car, the good looking Ferrari 550 has the kind of effortless-handling which revels in sweeping bends and high-speed straights, the Lamborghini Gallardo is a brutal and uncompromising powerhouse, whilst the new Jaguar XK and rear-engined Porsche 997 are the modern-day incarnations of cars born on the racetrack. A driving assessment and a certificate are also included. At Thruxton, you'll take the wheel for four laps in a Porsche Cayman and four laps in the awesome Aston Martin Vantage V8, then finish with four laps in the all-aluminium Ferrari F430 supercar, capable of 0-60mph in under four seconds and a top speed of nearly 200mph. Finally, swap to the passenger seat for the high-speed ride of your life.
There was a time when sports cars were made for one reason - to provide pure motoring bliss. There were no onboard computers, no power steering, no ABS, and certainly no satellite navigation. Well here's your chance to drive a true classic on the open road and experience a motoring thoroughbred first hand. Choose between one of the finest cars to ever come out of Italy, the Ferrari Dino GTS, the supremely iconic Jaguar 'E' Type 4.2 Series II Roadster and the beautifully refined handbuilt Aston Martin DB6. With four days of weekend hire there's plenty of time to enjoy your car of choice. The Ferrari Dino and Aston Martin DB6 come with 300 mileage allowance included, the Jaguar 'E'-Type with 375 mileage allowance included. Although picking between these three classics will be tough, there is no doubt the hardest part will be handing the keys back at the end of the weekend. So step back in time and find out what made these marques so great in the first place.
There's fast, there's furious, and then there's Formula 1 - a whole other league of speed. You'll start off with a briefing and demo laps in a hot hatch or sports saloon. Then get behind the wheel and drive up to 17 laps of a single seater Formula Ford at Racing School venues, or five laps in a Porsche 911 or Ferrari at Mallory Park in Leicestershire. Then it's on to the main event - blow your mind with eight laps in a Tyrell at Mallory Park, or ten laps in a Forti-Corse or 1994 Arrows FA14 at other circuits. All these cars are ex-Formula 1: they might have retired from racing but they're guaranteed to give you an unforgettable driving experience. A few laps in these beauties will redefine your notion of speed, road holding and handling, and give you an adrenaline rush you can't imagine! At Mallory Park you'll also get to drive ten laps in an F3-style single-seater. Lunch, memorabilia and an F1 certificate are included, plus dinner and overnight accommodation for two.
