Of the range on offer which ones have you done or would you recommend?

Just done the 2 day corse and would recomdend doing that (with a gap of 2 / 3 weeks between the 2 days)

First day is all about reading the road and various road driving techniques

You then have a couple of weeks to practise, before getting back in the saddle on the second day, which also includes some track stuff to demonstrate understeer, lift off overtsteer, and braking distances etc

both myself and my wife have done the "Full Day Advanced Driving Experience" sessions and found them very very very good - helps with insurance as well

I then also did the "Advanced Handling Skills & Road Driving Experience Day" as well - dammed useful and I learnt a lot more in this day than dozens of the track days I've done.

Being local to them all of our days have been with Julian - who is an absolutely top bloke and I absolutely recommend you give him a call... (oh and ask about the buss pass now he's retired from service )

I did the "Advanced Handling Skills & Road Driving Experience Day" a few weeks after getting my car.
Well worth it, learnt a lot, great roads and good fun, although it's a very long day!
I've been intending on doing another day but haven't got round to it yet.

Thanks everyone who has contributed so far,

Jase, you are also in Oxon, where did you do the course?

I'm in South Oxfordshire, so went to Maidenhead (Berks)

I think Julian has police drivers all over the country, so you don't have to go too far. Although you will drive a couple of hundred miles on the day and do lots of overtaking!!

Let me know if you need any further info
