Silverstone Aston Martin Experience
About this experience
Learn part of the famous Grand Prix circuit from behind the wheel of the newest addition to the Silverstone fleet: the Aston Martin Vantage.
The V8 Vantage is a stunning combination of British glamour and speed, with a brand-new cockpit boasting a lower driving position along with an eight-speed paddle shift gearbox, and speeds up to 195mph. From the moment you see the striking Silverstone Wing you’ll know you’re in for a real racing experience, and as you fly your Vantage past the pits and down the International straight you’ll be able to hear the roar of its high powered 4.0 litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine.
You’ll be taught by an ARDS-licensed instructor, who’ll teach you how to take Silverstone’s famous corners.
