Ferrari versus Aston Martin Driving Experience

  • Full briefing and demo laps driven by a qualified instructor
  • Take the driving seat of a Ferrari 360 or 575 for four laps
  • Enjoy driving the Aston Martin V8 Vantage for a further four laps
  • End with a driving assessment and certificate presentation

Two world-famous marques go head to head - with you in the driving seat. Experience either the Ferrari 360 or 575 and the Aston Martin V8 Vantage and discover what makes these cars so special. Both Ferrari models have phenomenal acceleration, braking and handling. The 180mph Ferrari 575 revels in sweeping bends and high-speed straights and the sleek 360 has a top speed of 185mph, accelerating from 0-100mph in just 8.8 seconds. The stunning Aston Martin V8 Vantage is a beautifully crafted modern classic with V8 power and performance to stir the soul. You'll kick off with a briefing on driving techniques, then your ARDS instructor will drive for two training laps in a hot hatch, so that you can learn the racing lines. Next, take the wheel yourself of either the 575 or 360 for four laps around the 1.8 mile long track. Once you've got your breath back, step into the V8 Vantage for a further four laps. A driving assessment and a certificate conclude your experience.
