"...no road car we have ever driven can match the sheer instant response of the 360's fly-by-wire electronic throttle. As soon as the pedal is touched, the car leaps forward and hurtles right up to the 8,500rpm red line with the high pitched scream of a race car...." Jeremy Clarkson loved the nimble Ferrari 360. The lovely noise from the V8 engine and the fantastic gearshift can be experienced by you on our Ferrari driving experience.
"...the 360 has an expensive and exotic chassis, using an aluminium spaceframe, aluminium double wishbones and electronic damping. As with its engine, gearbox and brakes, the responses from its steering and chassis are absolutely instant and totally true..."

"...sounds like a thermo-nuclear device being detonated, while the driving experience is just as explosive with 500bhp and four-wheel drive..." That's what Top Gear though of the Lamborghini Gallardo. Our Lamborghini driving experience lets you find out for yourself by driving a Lamborghini on track with our instructors. You'll love the 500 Bhp and four wheel drive system and the fantastic noise from the V10 engine.
"...fast, we can do. Fast we can do to the point of making hands go grey as blood fails to pump the required distance to the steering wheel during full-bore acceleration..."
"...The SE cracks through the first four gears with more verve, prompting in turn a more serious expression from the driver as the smoother engine mapping and slightly freer-flowing exhaust give the impression that this car is much more of a missile than the stock motor..."
