I'm after a Aston Martin experiance for a friends retirement. He lives in Preston so the northern half of the UK would be Ideal.

Alot of the experiances seem to be very restrictive in their allowed use of the loud pedal. We're not expecting a Topgear style thrash. The chaps a motorway cop so a 2nd gear pootle round 3 sisters is not going to cut it.

Any recommendations please.

Thanks

Take your pick.

I did it in a DBS when they used to use Prodrive's facility.

Drove a 360 and a Gallardo with them at Bruntingthorpe and got up to a decent speed.

Looking at Elvington's circuit, looks like he'd be able to get some decent speed there.

I know it's not the North... But we bought the father in law a day at Silverstone in a DB9. He said afterwards that the instructor was pushing him to go faster and get the arse out.

This really is a pointless post as I can't even remember the company we used!
