Experience the fun of 4x 4 driving on this full day shared experience. You will soon discover the wealth of surfaces to drive on & in, with chalk, clay, s&, mud runs & even water crossings to test those axles & suspension struts. As well as using the established 'green lane' tracks & trails on the estate, you'll be able to have a go at the purpose built off road test circuit, which is specifically designed to test your nerve & powers of concentration as you negotiate the steepest banks, ruts, side slopes & more. The vehicles on site have also been hand selected to reflect the off road motoring market today. The modern fleet of standard & modified motors include the seminal Land Rover Discovery (with manual or automatic gearboxes) & it is exactly this type of beast you will driving. All vehicles are maintained on site by the in-house team of mechanics & technicians & fully prepped for rugged terrain.  Before you drive a 4x 4 in East Kent, your instructor will take you for a short demo ride. You will then get behind the wheel of the 4x 4 to make mincemeat of the off road challenge. On the full day experience you will get extra driving time to go ploughing through those muddy runs & splash in the water crossings, making light work of the mixed off road surfaces, then facing hill climbs & side slopes. By the end of the day you might very well be driving the same route driven by your instructor during the demo drive! ...
