Prepare yourself for an extraordinary experience driving authentic ex-Army off-road vehicles in the serene West Wiltshire Downs near Salisbury.

From trucks to armoured personnel carriers and jeeps, you will have the chance to handle a variety of military-grade vehicles. One standout vehicle is the Austin Champ Jeep, a legendary UK-built 4x4 used by the British Army. This particular Jeep is armoured and comes with a (decommissioned) .303 Bren gun, adding an extra layer of authenticity to your experience. Although these military vehicles have retired from active duty, they still boast substantial power and torque. During your 45-minute drive, you'll need to focus and concentrate as you navigate these impressive machines.

Customer Reviews for the Green Lane Military Drive Experience (Groups 5) - Wiltshire

This looked a good experience for both my son and husband to celebrate a birthday I paid twice so they could both have a driving experience. They got to drive the same two vehicles .... although not the opportunity to see the others mentioned in the description which was a little disappointing. I was under the impression that they would be able to look at the other vehicles and maybe choose which one they would like to drive this is probably my mistake, and is not what happens. The two vehicles were the only ones there, the others evidently being stored some way away. The instructor was friendly and enthusiastic about the vehicles that were available that day.The directions were a little tricky to follow and possibly need checking as we felt they were not completely correct. We managed to find it though and enjoyed it once we had. The weather was not kind which is noones fault, but there was nowhere to wait or watch so I ended up observing from our car.Just a small note there are no facilities at all available so dont arrived desperate for the loo theres one in the CoOp garage on the main road before you turn off for the venueWe might well visit again, but would check if we could have different vehicles available on the day, if we did. We felt the price was competitive with others available.

Had an awesome time. Peter, the instructor, was knowledgeable and patient as he guided you round the tracks. Cant wait to go back and do some more.
