What about Insurance?

The centres contracted with us hold public liability insurance. We also hold contingency liability cover.

Some operators require customers to complete an indemnity/damage waiver form prior to taking the experience. This may state the driver is liable for a fixed amount of costs should they damage the vehicle whilst driving. Most operators are able to provide additional insurance to cover this at a small additional fee, payable on site. The purchase of this is optional and is in addition to the public liability insurance held by all venues. The full details of any indemnity or damage waiver and additional insurance will be provided by the activity operator. WonderDays is unable to advise or comment on the content or suitability of any such waiver or additional insurance.

How it Works

All you have to do is pay for the experience you wish to purchase and we’ll send a voucher and booking information to you or directly to the recipient, then you just need to check the info and book your experience.

Yes, there is a driving trainer sat in car with you at all times out on track.

How long do I drive for?

For each experience that you purchase, you will be allocated three miles per car. How long you are physically on the track really depends on how fast you want to drive!

What do I need to wear?

Please be aware that all driving experiences are completely outdoors and open to the elements. It's always worth packing a coat or umbrella even if the forecast looks sunny as airfields and circuits tend to be very windy!

Drivers should wear sensible shoes or trainers for driving and comfy trousers. 

Do all cars run in the rain?

Yes, events are run in all weathers unless it is deemed so extreme that is unsafe to be on track.

Do I have to drive quickly?

Not at all, our trainers will help you enjoy the drive however you would like to.

What happens on the day?

We advise customers to book all vehicles onto the same time slot however if you have more than three cars to drive, please DO NOT book the last session of the day.

Please be aware that you will need to allow up to 3 hours at the venue from your session start time to complete your experience.

Photograph and video packages are available on the day, ranging from £25-£60 dependant on the package chosen and footage available.

Are the cars insured? 

Yes but there is a £5,000 damage excess that is payable by the driver if any damage is caused whilst they are behind the wheel. You can cover yourself against the excess with an optional £29 damage waiver (available upon booking or on the day). This is a non-refundable payment. Please ensure you bring a credit card on the day if you are opting out of the damage waiver. This must be a card with a minimum £5000 limit. Please note the experience provider does not accept American Express. 

Can people with additional needs enjoy this experience?

Yes, all instructors have completed training to ensure that they can work with people with additional needs such as ADHD, autism and visual impairment.

  • Felt nostalgic

    Overall a pretty fun experience driving these classic british cars. Been a big fan of this secret agent so when I got a gift card to Wonderdays I thought why not. The venue was ok and the instructor was fairly professional. Could see myself saving up to buy a Jag myself one day.
