My Dad has finally got enough money to buy a dream car, something he has always wanted to do, at the age of 65 he's now fullfilling it and has a Jaguar Project 7 being delivered to him next year.

My father is a good driver, not fast but smooth and very curtious (ex motorcyclist) however I'm worried that he will be a bit fearful of this new car, nearly 600bhp and Rwd, he has driven the V8 model and he has said how fast it is.

We have done many Trackdays in the past in my track striped focus RS and I even bought him a driving day at Thruxton in Exige's for the day working on his speed, lines, braking etc with a racing driver which he thoroughly enjoyed.

I would like to buy him a one to one with a racing driver at a circuit that he can really push it and will be pushed by the racing driver in his Jag, ultimately so he knows what the car is capable of and how far is too far but all in a safe enviroment with plenty of run off.

To that end can anyone recommend to me a driving day or company/individual that can provide this type of thing?

Any help be greatly received. Cheers. Andy.
