Drive the a-may-zing Lambo Huracan Super Trofeo
- a car that's not even street-legal in the UK! ...

Whip up a bit of a storm with a Lamborghini Huracan track drive! You'll need all the skills to get the Huracan driving thrills as this is some beast. Lamborghini has certainly hit the nail on the head once again when it comes to big brash & bold supercars. It's time to meet the Huracan at a track near you! As you might suspect Huracan in Spanish (pronounced 'ooh-ra-can') means Hurricane. & driving this thing is certainly going to be a bit of a whirlwind. It's an imposing piece of kit that mixes all the flamboyance of the Italians with the precision of Audi's German engineering. Who'd have thought that relationship could ever work but it does. & the Huracan gives you bucketloads of thrills. Driving this car is something of a sensation. It's got a seven speed double clutch transmission so if you're nifty on the fingers you can rip through those gears with the paddle shift. That means you make the most of all that power encapsulated in that 5.2l V10 monster of an engine. & v... ...

Get revved up to go a tutto gas in this Lamborghini Super Trofeo! This very special Gallardo is a full-on racing car from the

The great thing about this Lamborghini test drive is that you don't have to have over £180 000 burning a hole in your pocket! Yep that's how much an all-singing all-dancing Gallardo would have cost you new so our drives are considerably better value for your money we think you'll agree. We say would have cost you as the very last Gallardo rolled off the production line in Sant' Agata Bolognese on the 25th November 2013. Retiring after a decade of loyal service to the supercar world this flagship Lambo was the biggest selling model of all time for the high-end Italian marque. And as we hinted at earlier it's not cheap being a Lamborghini owner. Replacing the clutch will leave you with a bill of thousands rather than hundreds of pounds & the price of tyre changes will make you wince (and being four wheel drive you are obliged to buy a new set of four together). But it is still a Lamborghini & there's no doubting these cars are seriously coveted the world over which is why it's great you're here to test drive one rather than pay for its upkeep. This operator has several Gallardos at their disposal in a range of colours including those classic bright bold colours to show off their ostentatious looks but also the more subtle colours like Blue Caelum for the discrete supercar owner. They certainly looks the part from the outside in any colour but what's going on on the inside? Well first of all we can tell you there's nothing but a tiny space under the bonnet & that's because the huge V10 engine is pretty much placed right behind your head which is the all better for listening to that glorious V10 note. Inside the cockpit your seat is as low down as you'd imagine but the steering wheel is nicely weighted & the brake pedal isn't the heavy mass you'd expect. As for actually driving the Lambo you'll be wanting to test out that acceleration to the max. The E-Gear automatic system is pretty efficient or you can change gear yourself 'clutchlessly' using the paddles. & believe us this car really goes. & when you get somewhere near the red line at 8 500rpm the exhaust wails as opposed to that gratifying gurgle at idle. These racing hot Lamborghini test drives give you three or six miles around the track of our choice. A pro driver will be riding shotgun with you to help you get the most out of this iconic car so get yourself geared up & ready to take a real Italian star for a spin! ...

Step into aviation history when you join the Lancaster bomber flight simulator crew! We are offering a duo of experiences in this unique simulator setup giving you the chance to find out what flying these WW2 heavy bombers was like. This Lancaster simulator is based at a flying club at Brighton City (Shoreham) Airport. The replica cockpit has been built to give you the feel of what it was like being one of the seven-strong crew in a Lancaster bomber. One of the most dangerous roles in the war the average life expectancy was just two weeks. Conditions inside the Lancaster were pretty harsh. Despite the large bulbous canopy it did feel claustrophobic inside & it was difficult to move around the aircraft with the wing spars. Flying at 20 000ft with no pressurisation it was cold so gunners wore insulated suits & oxygen masks. Right up front in the very nose of the aircraft was the bomb aimer/nose gunner. Then it was the pilot with the flight engineer & the navigator just behind... ...
