Oh dear, you better get your tin hat on, the grammar police will be here again soon...

Also, how old are you as this will effect the responses you get?

im 25 so hopefully age souldnt be a problem.

All the ones with various super cars I have seen always seem to limit yourself to low gears on small tracks, so maybe a rally experiance

BMW M3 and Formula (Palmer I think?) at Brands Hatch is £150 and I thought was brilliant fun, if a little short.

Did a Land Rover Experience night drive at Eastnor Castle the other week, might not be up your street but well worth the £225 cost.

Minimum 2 day hire.

but.

Fvck me, what a brilliant idea!

Prices seem very decent as well. There must be a catch? £99 per day for hire of a motorhome and a Caterham, I've not read it all yet?

Still, a great idea.

To add something relevant.

I've done the "cheap" drive packages at the Airfield near York. One in a Ferari 360 and another in a Lambo Murcielago.

Both cost circa £100 and although made great presents were over in a flash and just leave you wanting more.

You really do get what you pay for.

I had a boots driving experiance ( I think it was from them anyway ) that was ment to be a rally car experiance, i turned up at 10am to a normall size car park covered in gravel with a coned course laid out, did 2 3 lap sessions in a 1.6 focus and 1 lap with a instructor driving and that was it an that cost £100 so im just a little sceptic if a could one can be purchased without spending £500++
