"Ferrari Thrill at Silverstone" Driving experience for sale

[KLP 92]

I have a driving experience for sale:

Ferrari Thrill at Silverstone
The World's most famous car at Britain's most famous driving venue.
Three laps of adrenaline fuelled excitement around the demanding Silverstone Southern Circuit. Push the classic F355 to its limits down the Hanger Straight and then try and control the speed through the corners. It's an unforgettable driving experience that's sure to leave you with memories that will last a lifetime.


I have booked the course for Monday the 16th August at 10:40am. Unfortunately i cannot make the event so i'm offering it for sale. It cost £115 but highest offer gets it. Its at Silverstone.

"Min height 5'2''. Max height 6'2''."

well that rules us two out - annie is 5' nothing and I'm 6'4" - never did understand that size restriction but it cropped up before when Annie tried to buy me one of the Debenhams "red letter days" driving a Ferrari as a present. I wonder if I were to visit a dealer they'd refuse to sell me a car because I'm too tall?

Slightly off topic: I hope you have waraning stickers on the 2 farad capacitor. Someone's going to rest a tool one day and get quite literally the shock of their lives!

Just wondered, if you've booked the course already for the 16th August, I take it the 10 months validity is void?

Looking for more than £25, sorry.

That was just the opening bid, I'm surprised no one else joined in. I'll watch it on eBay.

Its booked for that Monday. Unfortunately once its booked there is no refund or no chance of changing dates!

And Scott, don't worry i don't let anyone else near my car let alone anyone with a tool in their hand!! Had to go for a larger cap as the alternator wasn't overly powerful and that they were half price in america!

Should have known. I used to buy 1 farad caps from a guy in Australia who wrtecked mainframe computers. Cost me under £5 each in unlimited quantities. Worked very well and were always polished stainless steel like cases.

Must also be said that many of us are enjoying your constant purchase/upgrade cycle in pics and stories. Fantastic to see, as most of us rarely change car.
