Porsche Thrill
Porsche continue to make some of the world’s most iconic and exciting sports cars. With handling and acceleration that has to be experienced to be believed, it’s your turn to find out what makes these cars legendary. You’ll start off with a short briefing from your qualified instructor. What happens next depends on venue: at Prestwold Hall, Oxfordshire or Staffordshire circuits, you’ll tear around for between six and seven miles in the 997 version of the 911. At Prodrive, Bruntingthorpe, Elvington or Long Marston you’ll drive the awesome 996 Turbo for between four and five laps and at the renowned Thruxton circuit you’ll enjoy the latest Porsche Cayman for four breathtaking laps. So buckle up and enjoy the pinnacle of German engineering.
