Sunday Service 27/04: Mercedes-Benz World

Packed 2014 SS calendar continues with a return to the Mercedes-Benz World very soon



You know what to expect from a PH Sunday Service now. But as well as the normal Sunday Service breakfast rolls and chatting with your fellow PHers, the MBW guys have laid on a few treats.

You will be able to see the magnificent G63 AMG 6x6 in the metal and the Fortec Motorsport team will be displaying its awesome SLS AMG GT3 inside the AMG Performance Gallery, which we'll have exclusive access to. On display also will be a PHer's Mercedes E300 W124. But it's no regular old Shed, the owner having carefully restored the car over the past few months having bought it unseen from a popular auction site with 230,000 miles. You can have a read of the restoration story here and see the car in the metal on the 27th.

Furthermore, there will be exhilarating passenger rides available around the track between 10:00 and 11:00 in one of the following: S63 AMG, SLS AMG GT, C63 AMG Black Series and E63 AMG S with prices starting from just £10 dependant on which vehicle you choose.

A new addition to Sunday Services at MBW are driving taster sessions in various AMG cars at just £30 for 15 minutes. These will run from 11:00 until 13:00 with the possibility of returning to passenger rides before 13:00 dependant on demand for the driver taster sessions.

Both the passenger rides and driver taster sessions are bookable on the day and will be on a first come first served basis. It's therefore worth booking these ASAP on the day to avoid disappointment.

At 13:00 we will be able to see the awesome SLS AMG GT3 car displaying outside with the Silver Arrows shortly after it at 13:10 with our parking area being the perfect place to get a good view.

The guys at MBW have asked that we vacate the parking area as soon as the Silver Arrows finish their display to allow the parking area to be opened for experiences so please bear this in mind.

We have 600 spaces and these always fill up quickly so make sure you put your name on the calendar here post haste. Remember the Sunday Service starts at 9:00 so there's no need to be there any earlier!

For those of you that haven't been before, the address is:
Mercedes-Benz World,
Brooklands Drive,
Weybridge,
Surrey KT13 0SL.

We look forward to seeing you there.

Haven't been able to make any Sunday Services at Mercedes-Benz World yet, fingers crossed!

Is there any lower age limit on the pax rides? I know a 7 year old who would love a ride in an SLS.

If the little'un is less than 1.35m they will insist on a booster seat other than that, there is no lower age limit thumbup

Only guide dogs are allowed in the building. If you do bring the dog, please be aware that the passenger rides can be quite loud (mmmmm V8 goodness) and also when people arrive/ leave it can be quite noisy so it could unsettle dogs. The dog would need to be kept on a lead and any "eggs" that are laid would need to be picked up by yourself. thumbup

Cool ta. Memphis doesn't bat an eyelid with noises, (gun dog goodness) and has a current preference for V10s but he's partial to a V8.

My STI only makes his tail wag and he was sat behind the XJR-9 at JLR when it fired up and wasn't at all bothered smile

He's a PHer smile

Over 300 already..

MB World is a great place anyway, been there loads and been on the off-road course. Even met Lewis Hamilton there and seen the Brawn F1 cars going round the track.
This looks excellent though.
