About the experience
The Truck Driving Experience is a unique opportunity to get behind the wheel of a huge 12 car transporter. You'll be guided by a fully qualified Heavy Goods Vehicle (HGV) instructor as you attempt to manoeuvre the 60-foot behemoth around a specialist course. The truck itself is a Scania P420, which boasts a 13-litre 6 cylinder engine and produces 420 BHP.You'll get approximately 15-20 minutes in control of the Scania lorry, prior to which you'll be given an in-depth briefing in the cab by your instructor. Once you've got to grips with the oversized steering wheel and the 12-speed gearbox you'll attempt to drive the truck around slaloms and tight technical sections. You'll also have a chance to see what it's like to reverse park a lorry.
