Get a feel for what it would be like to be a Fire Fighter with the Dennis Fire Engine Driving Experience. After your arrival, sign on and safety briefing, you'll get up close and personal with a Dennis RS V8, which boasts an 8.2-litre Turbocharged 200bhp engine that's capable of speeds of up to 80mph. Under expert instruction, you'll get to grips with just how different it is to drive a vehicle of that size, making use of the famous 'blues and twos' as often as possible.
