Aston Martin Driving Thrill

Just had my Aston Martin driving experiennce at Everyman Driving Centre. The set up at site is very professional, friendly and all the staff are just keen to make sure your day is the best it can be. Without a doubt though the Aston Martin DB9 that I had the pleasure of driving was the star of the show. What an awesome machine! Beauty and the Beast all in one wrapper. So, only 2 things left to say really - If you're thinking of buying a driving experience DO IT NOW! And Santa, don't mess about trying the chimney....on the drive will be just fine thanks!!

My late father was an Aston DB4 owner in the 60s and I was too young to appreciate the awesome car he had, but over the years my love of Astons has grown. Knowing my mother would never take charge of the wheel of Dad's Aston I was a little apprehensive when it was my turn on Saturday to take the wheel and that was after the demo lap as a passenger in a Subaru. Once I had shaken hands my instructor Lee who put me at ease it felt fantastic to sit in the DB9 Convertible. The thrill of starting to drive the car out onto the track was great and to be able to 'put your foot down' was exhilarating. What an awesome experience and a wonderful birthday present. You could not fail to love this drive of your life!

This was a 60th birthday treat from my son and daughter in law. My wife, Son and daughter in law plus two year old grandson had a great day at Pro Drive. The organisation was great and my instructor first rate.The weather wasn't too bad either. I will be needing another fix in the not too distant future

Absolutely fantastic day, couldn't have wished for more. The thrill of driving such a car was made even better by the enthusiasm of my instructor,

The experience was perfect. The staff were friendly, helpful and professional plus I was so exicited from the DB9 event I forgot to collect my certificate on leaving!

On Sunday 28th June, when most people were hoping England would start to perform at the World Cup, I was down at Rockingham driving an Aston Martin. Despite the football, I has not disappointed. It was a fantastic experience from start to finish.

OMG, what a fabulous afternoon. It surpassed our expectations and we will definitely be coming again sometime soon.

It was an amazing day, staff all very helpful. The instructor made the ride even better, pushing me to get the most from the car. Amazing!! Big thank you to him.

Excellent day from start to finish - one I will certainly remember. Can't wait to do it again!

The guys at the track were all really helpful and friendly which went a long way to making the experience so good.

My Red Letter Day was an excellent opportunity to fulfill a dream and I obviously felt like the next F1 champion. Great organisation makes for a smooth experience on a day that I will not forget. Many thanks.

We (my wife came too) had a marvellous day. The weather was superb - which helped, but all the staff there at the Everyman Centre were friendly and welcoming. I really enjoyed the time in the Aston Martin (but sadly they wouldn't let me keep it) but equally both my wife and I paid extra to go around three laps with the Atom, which was a small racing car driven by a gent looking very much like the Stig. The speed at which he took the corners! Amazing and very exhilarating. Recommended. A great day out and much enjoyed.

The day was excellent and very well organised. It started with a briefing from an experienced instructor and then a quick whizz around the track in a Mini Cooper to get familiarised! Then after a brief wait it was into the Aston for a few laps! I managed to overtake an audi R8 as part of my laps and picked up a couple of driving tips about car control. Overall an excellent day out that I definitely want to do again!

The staff were fantastic from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. The driving instructor was as enthusiastic and excited as I was! Brilliant day all round.

I was given the Aston Martin Thrill as a 30th birthday gift from my brother and that's exactly what I got. When choosing my date and destination from the wide range available, I settled on Rockingham race school. This was a great choice. All instructions on how to find the track were clear and made it easy to get to. On arrival, the Rockingham staff were really helpful and directed us clearly where to go. They also provided the opportunity to get dvd footage of the in-car experience. First up a briefing and then out with an instuctor for 2 familiarity laps. Then it was into the Aston itself. It was a great experience to open up the Aston round the track with an instructor advising how to get the most of the car and track. After 4 laps of serious concentration and thrilling twists and turns it was soon time to come in. I went home buzzing and exhilarated with my certificate and dvd for posterity. All in all a great day.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Aston Martin thrill. It was extremely well organised, the staff were very friendly and knowledgable. The instruction and preparation was very professional and the drive itself was brilliant.

I really enjoyed my experience and have already recommended it to my friends. The tuition is really helpful and what a 'buzz' it is working the corners and accelerating out of them. I can still hear the grunt of the engine!!

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....!

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!

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

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!

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 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.

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!

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!

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.

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!!!!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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!!!

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.

Great fun, and a once in a lifetime experience with excellent support from the organisers and driving instructors. Would highly recommend it.

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.
