Driving Experience Days: Experience the vehicles of yesteryear with this fantastic Military Driving Session, where you can actually get in the driver's seat and drive authentic war machines of years gone by. Take your pick from BV 206 Hagglund to go up down and over anything, the Ex Military DAF that is a permanent 4 X 4 drive (the real ultimate truck driving experience), get behind the wheel and drive an Ex Military Fire Tender around the track, an EX Military Land Rover which was used for a variety of tasks in the army or try out the monstrous 17 tonne FV432 Tank.
Once you have arrived and been welcomed to the centre your experience will begin with a safety brief and an introduction to the amazing Military vehicles that you are about to drive (choosing 2 from the range). Then, you will be free to roam the track with your instructor for a couple of laps in each vehicle! You will be learning to drive the amazing vehicles and getting to grips with the sturdy and solid controls!
Depending on the vehicles you choose, you'll be traversing up, down and across any of the bumps, humps on the gravel / mud surface! You will even get to cross the Bailey Bridge in your vehicles of choice
