This awesome military driving experience, conducted over a half day session in Northamptonshire, includes the unique opportunity to try driving three Military vehicles, the 432 Armoured Personnel Carrier, Abbott FV433 and either a Springer or Stormer. You will also receive an extensive tour of the armoury or a talk on this. And that's not all, because if you've been judged the top scoring "Best Driver" by the instructors on the day, you'll get to take on the 'Crush a Car' challenge. It certainly promises to be four hours you won't forget for a long time!
