How tall people see the Lotus plant
Who would have thoight that Norfolk has so much to offer? Well, with a little help from PistonHeads driving tour partner and Lotus Cars it seems that the East Anglian countryside can offer PHers all they need for a fantastic weekend away.
Many of you have already booked up to join us, but for those that are yet to do so this is your final call as the last few spaces remain available.
Although we promoted this tour at the beginning of the year, here are the details for those that might have missed it.
Day one: We meet at the Lotus facilities in Hethel, Norfolk, at midday when the friendly guys at Lotus HQ take us on a full guided tour of the factory so you can see just how some of the best handling cars in the world are put together. After the tour we'll be spending approximately half an hour on track in a current production Lotus. First you will get to drive with expert instruction provided by a Lotus test driver, and then they'll demonstrate in a few hot laps what the cars are actually capable of! The day ends with a short drive to a wonderful country house hotel where a fine dinner is provided, drinks are consumed, and beds are welcomed!
Day two: After breakfast (full English, naturally) we are met by more Lotus test drivers before they lead us on a morning tour of their favourite local roads - the very roads where the suspension of each new Lotus model is fine-tuned before production. The morning ends with tea and cakes on the Norfolk coast, with ample opportunity to discuss the morning's antics.
Spaces on the tour are offered at £297 per person including factory tour, track time in a new Lotus, dinner/bed/breakfast in a country house hotel, and morning refreshments at the drive out on Sunday morning.
We hope that you will be able to join us! For more details and to book either call the guys at Petrolhead Nirvana on 0845 838 7363 or visit the website
