Those aged 12 and up near Rugby in Warwickshire can look forward to taking control of a Desert Storm buggy! This military style buggy is yours to take around a purpose built course at the Tanks, Trucks and Firepower Showground. This light yet powerfully built all-terrain vehicle is powered on a 1000cc V-Twin engine, with all the force and torque required to manoeuvre out of any tricky sand situation that presents itself in searing desert conditions. It also pulls out some highly impressive speeds of up to 40mph on uneven terrain, making this a truly unique military vehicle to drive. And over the course of your 20 minute driving experience, you'll get to have a go at attempting a variety of different manoeuvres. Plus, if you fancy adding it on, there's also passenger rides in the Alvis Spartan tank to add onto this experience as well!
