This is one driving package for two in Scotland that is certainly one with a difference, as this Tank Driving Experience for Two, hosted at Scart Farm - based in the Bridge of Weir in Renfrewshire, that's within easy access of Glasgow - will see you both reporting for duty at basecamp. An instructor will then be showing you around the controls of an ex-British Army FV432 APC armoured tank, weighing 18 tonnes, and you'll each then climb into the tank on separate sessions. You'll have up to 20 minutes' driving time navigating this titan of a machine around a course that has a number of challenging steep, wet and muddy terrains that'll really show off what it can do. You'll also both get a chance to ride in the crew compartment, making this a truly authentic military tank driving experience.
