A definite thumbs up!! Car was amazing, great instructor and just being around all those amazing cars was fantastic. Will be coming back for more.
An awesome experience. The team at the venue were great - really friendly, very chatty and, most importantly, great at explaining what you'd be doing and how to get the most out of your laps before you even get into your dream car. The 'familiarisation' laps were fun, thanks to the experienced and lively instructors, but also invaluable so you knew exactly where your brake and turn points were as well as the best racing line. Once in the car (a V12 DB9....mmmmmmm) the in-car instructor talked me through every stage of the circuit, allowing me to push harder on every lap. Suffice to say, in the official photographs taken from track-side, the car's position may have shifted slightly from lap to lap, but the ridiculous grin of enjoyment, excitement and satisfaction remained totally fixed! Can't wait for the next time....!
Outstanding Thrill Which Is Priceless!
I had an absolutely amazing time flooring an Aston Martin DB9 around a race track in Loughborough! All of the staff were fantastic, friendly and really helpful throughout the whole day and really added to the overall experience. You simply can't put a price on the thrill of approaching a hairpin bend at over 120mph in a 'supercar'! I thoroughly enjoyed it and will be asking for more Red Letter Day experiences at every opportunity!
It Was The Best Present I Have Ever Bought
I bought this for my partner for his birthday as the Aston Martin DB9 is his dream car. He had the best day out ever but unfortunately he now wants one ... looks like I need to save up ... I will definitely buy the experience again for him.
The Most Awesome Drive Of My Life
I had a great time up at the Mira testing track near Nuneaton. I thought the organisation was very good. The information given once you got to the track was concise and informative. Everyone was very helpful and happy. I would readily recommend my choice to family and friends - BRILLIANT. It was my 50th birthday present from my brothers and their families.
I was a bit nervous when I got to the centre, but as soon as I saw the Aston I couldn't wait to get started. I literally can't describe the thrill of being behind the wheel of such a monster! The instructor was fantastic and so helpful. I would do it again in a second - in fact, I'm about to book another DB9 experience very soon. I will definitely be recommending this to my friends! Thank you for a great experience.
Perfect Present For A Petrol Head Like Me!
We arrived really early for our experience, and was able to enjoy watching the amazing and powerful cars that were at the circuit going around. When the time came, the staff were friendly, kind and very informative. They made me feel at ease and the ride was exhilarating! A fantastic day, which I hope to do again at some time in my lifetime!
I booked this for my boyfriend and he had an amazing day. It made me so happy to see how excited he was beforehand and how much he loved it once he'd finished. The whole day was carried out brilliantly and couldn't be faulted. I would definitely book through Red Letter Days again.
This is the second track day I have taken with Red Letter Days in a month. After driving the Lamborghini Gallardo I didn't think another car could top it but the Aston certainly changed my mind. There is no experience like driving a supercar 150mph round a track. The adrenaline rush and thrill is second to none! This was well worth the 2 hour drive and it won't be too long before I go again. Fantastic day!!
To start with, it felt as if I was about to take my driving test again, as with trepidation, I lowered myself into the exquisite burgundy Aston Martin DB9. Martin, my instructor, immediately put me at my ease, 'it's just like driving a Honda Jazz' he quipped. Tentatively pulling away, the power of the car really took hold and I swear, the car was driving me!! By my 4th lap, I had the hang of the corners and took the decision to push it down the straight. . OMG . . .IMMENSE!! What an experience ... would do it again tomorrow!
Fantastic Experience, When Can I Do It Again?!
Very well organised. A little nervous on arrival as never done before but put at ease and felt was in hands of professional instructors who really knew their stuff. The Aston Martin was thrilling and a most enjoyable experience that I can't wait to do again. Would highly recomend a day at the track. Thanks and see you soon.
Wow - My 30Th - One Of The Best Days Of My Life
I have been on a experience day before, however this was amazing, I could not believe how professional this was. Anyway about the car... amazing, my co-driver was excellent and I would advise anyone who likes these cars to go for it (make sure you get the video ... every time I watch it, it brings it back). Can't say much else except it was fantastic and I would love to do it again...
The Fulfilment Of A Lifelong Ambition
On what was a glorious summer's day in the superb setting of the MIRA facilities, a lifelong ambition to drive an Aston Martin was fulfilled. The professionalism of the staff and instructors made the driving of the DB9 a totally exhilarating experience.
I was quite nervous that I would be outclassed on a fast race track, and find it difficult to 'keep up' with expectations of racing. However the ride was brilliant and was not at all 'outclassed'. I even got to 115mph on the straight. It was not about racing to achieve a best time, but about the sheer enjoyment of driving the Aston Martin, at as fast as I felt comfortable. The instructors were excellent in the coaching, and helped provide an enjoyment beyond expectations.
The whole experience was fantastic. Booking the event was smooth and simple via the website. The event itself was well organised and trouble free, everything was highly professional and of course, culminated in an exhilarating drive in the Aston Martin DB9. I would certainly do this event, or similar, again and would recommend it to everyone. Thanks for a great day out.
Brilliant Day - Would Do It All Again In A Flash!
A fantastic day out from start to finish. All of the staff throughout the day were very kind and helpful and I would recommend the day to anyone.
Great Day For Everyone Involved
I had a fantastic time, but my family also enjoyed being at the track watching all of the cars, as there was a great atmosphere.
I Was Still On A High For The Rest Of The Day
The instructor was very calm and pleasant and very professional, makes such a difference when you are greeted with a smile. Well done!
The staff were so friendly, making the whole experience so much better and they cater to each individual person's driving skills, enabling you to get the best out of the experience.
Had an excellent time, it was thrilling - just got to save up and buy one now!
A Really Great Experience In A Truly Great Car
All I need to do now is win the lottery so that I can buy an Aston Martin. A great driving experience with an extremely personable and helpful instructor.
I thoroughly enjoyed my time behind the wheel of the Aston Martin DB9, would definitely recommend Red Letter Days to any and all of my mates. The staff at venue were friendly, polite and communicated everything in a clear and precise way so as that everyone understood what was expected of them.
'Brilliant' - What More Can I Say
Great day out. Even the rain could not dampen my excitement at doing 120mph in the DB9. Fantastic instructor who gave you the confidence to push the car.
Amazing Experience, Thank You Very Much
I was surprised at how easy the Aston Martin was to drive, which made it even better. The instructors were very clear and helpful in their advice and made the day go smoothly.
What A Fantastic Experience!
I bought my husband, son and daughter-in-law the Aston Martin Thrill for Christmas! The look on my son's face was worth a million pounds, my husband can't stop smiling and my daughter-in-law said it was like getting 2 presents ... the excitement of having the voucher given on Christmas Day and then experiencing the drive itself. Well worth the money!
Dressed As James Bond, Treated Like Him
I made an effort to look the part, ALL Everyman's staff made me feel the part, by being accommodating in every possible way. A fabulous experience with some memorable photographs from a memorable day.
A Great Christmas Present - Thank You Boys!!
Fantastic drive in the DB9 - a few more laps wouldn't have gone amiss!!! Well organised venue - all very helpful - great few hours and I got to drive the car of my dreams - thanks boys!
Superb!!! An Absolutely Fantastic Day.
This is something I would thoroughly recommend to anybody who has a passion for cars or even for someone who just wants a great day out to try something exciting. I am most definitely going to go back. There is a great collection of super cars which will make decisions hard but all of which will leave you with an unforgettable experience, truly breathtaking.
Fantastic Experience - Will Never Forget It!!!
From arrival at the circuit to getting in to the Aston and and collecting the photographs at the end the whole experience was excellent. The instructors got the safety message across by making it fun and informative. The car was an absolute dream, it was in mint condition and the perfect 'Bond' vehicle. What a drive!!!!
Exhilarating Is An Understatement
Having already had one of your Red Letter Days flying in a Tiger Moth two years ago, I couldn't have imagined driving a car would be more exciting! Wrong; my drive of a DB9 under great instruction was absolutely brilliant. The day couldn't have been better organised.
An Experience Unlikely To Be Equalled Anywhere
Exceptional customer orientated service, exhilarating experience, incredible choice of fantastic cars and the opportunity to take away unforgettable memories makes this top of any 'must do' list.
Super present from my twin daughters and we made a day of it together. Venue really organised everything very well and got a super set of photos from their photo service.
What a fantastic experience, the Aston Martin is such an awesome car, now I know what is meant by good road holding and to feel such power was incredible, I reached 120 mph and it felt like I was cruising. This was my first time behind the wheel of such a magnificent car and it certainly won't be my last, I found the experience quite addictive and I'll definitely be back. It was well organised, very professional and well worth it !
The Aston Martin Thrill certainly was my Red Letter Day. I've never been close to one of these cars, let alone drive one. A wonderful and memorable opportunity came my way thanks to my dear friend who bought me this birthday gift. Will not be forgotten and have the taste to try this again.
Great experience, loved the car and the staff were really friendly. Just wanted a few more laps!
Fantastic Experience - Not To Be Missed!
The DB9 is an amazing car with phenomenal acceleration and superb handling. The day was really well organised, and all of the instructors were really friendly. Will definitely being returning!
A Very Enjoyable And Memorable Day
I thoroughly enjoyed my experience in the DB9, if I had the money I'd buy one!! It was very well organised and everything done very professionally.
The Way To A Man's Heart!
This was a surprise present for my boyfriend ... correspondence was in discreet packaging, your customer service assistants were incredibly helpful and I've already encouraged friends and family to use your company!!! The staff at the venue were great, they prepared you for the greatest experience of your life - which is exactly what it was! It was a really cold day, but it was so exciting watching my boyfriend live his dream it warmed me up! He was soooo surprised ... and he really enjoyed it! I've never seen a man so happy in all my life! Maybe an Aston Martin Thrill is the way to their heart...?!
On a cold, wet November day this really blew the cobwebs away. A fantastic drive with a cool, calm and collected instructor.
What an amazing thrill! The staff are friendly and explain everything you need to know before you hit the track. The cars are fantastic and there's plenty of opportunity to put your foot down and make the most of the power on offer. An unforgettable day and I will certainly be booking a repeat trip soon.
The Red Letter Day Prestwold Hall Aston Martin day was simply awesome. The whole experience from the gift by my partner; booking the day right through to the knee trembling laps in the DB9 was easy and the day was simply brilliant. AWESOME!! I don't think I need to say any more!
Couldn't Have Asked For A Better Christmas Present
From the moment I turned into the venue the excitement began to build, I was finally going to drive the car of my dreams. There were no end of staff around to point me in the right direction to fulfill my dream.
I Left There Feeling Like A Champion
The driving instructors and co-ordinators were very courteous and professional. I left there feeling like a champion, forever knowing that I drove an Aston Martin well. I would not hesitate to go on another thrill drive experience, even though I had to drive 120 miles to get there! Well worth the effort.
Absolutely Amazing!! I Want A Aston Martin Db9!
What an excellent day out! The cars are absolutely beautiful! The health and safety dvd gives a glimpse of what to expect and then when you get a practice lap in an instructor's car, this just adds to the excitement of the day. I drove the Aston Martin DB9 and it was truly exhilarating! You are under instruction but allowed to drive as fast as you like, with easy to follow instructions throughout. Also the instructor is very laid back which makes you feel comfortable. I thoroughly enjoyed my day out and want to thank my partner for such a wonderful experience. Red Letter Days I will be recommending to everyone! I now want a DB9 of my own!!!
What An Experience, What A Car!!!
Would recommend to anyone and everyone! The Aston Martin DB9 was awesome. Pictures of the day look fantastic and it will be something I will be doing again. A memory not to be forgotten.
A Once In A Lifetime Experience
Great fun, and a once in a lifetime experience with excellent support from the organisers and driving instructors. Would highly recommend it.
Four Laps In My Dream Car!
One of the best experiences ever! I would now even consider selling my house to buy one. Very well organised, helpful & a lot of compliments to my driver who was an astoundingly nice bloke.
Although the weather was not up to scratch, that didn't dampen the day (excuse the pun)! The sounds and speed of all the different cars there really set the picture and make the day even more exciting. But that all changes as soon as you sit in the car and have control of it for the first time. And to actually feel the power is more breathtaking than just hearing the sound of the engine.
Awesome power in a awesome car.
Fabulous organisation and super, pleasant people.
Very professionally organised.
I had a really good time and the staff and instructors were fantastic - I would strongly recommend this experience.
My 80 year old mother-in-law did the Aston Martin Thrill and it was excellent - the co-driver was superb in making her feel at ease and encouraging her.
