Double Drive Dad's Car Experience - Classics
About the experience
Take a trip down memory lane with this one of a kind classic car driving experience. Drive Dad's, Mum's, your first car, or even the car you always wanted, with over 20 British classics, manufactured between 1935 and 1995, to choose from. With an expert instructor accompanying you throughout, you'll take your two chosen classics for 40 minutes of driving - 20 minutes in each - on a closed road course. You'll likely be in control of a vehicle with less power than your current car, with brakes and steering that'll require more effort than you've been used to, but that's all part of the experience. Listen to the sounds, appreciate the quirks and get to grips with what driving was like in times gone by.British classics to choose from include; Austin Allegro, Austin Maestro, Morris Ital, Mini, Austin Metro, Morris Minor 1000, Ford Fiesta, Ford Escort, Ford Cortina. Ford Capri, Ford Sierra, Ford Granada, Vauxhall Chevette, Vauxhall Astra, Vauxhall Cavalier, Austin 7, Reliant Robin, Morris Minor, Hillman Imp.
