The Main Event

This Tank Passenger Ride Experience is your ticket to swap sports cars for steel tracks and horsepower for, well… tank power. Taking place at the Gatwick Aviation Museum, this one-of-a-kind adventure lets you dive straight into the world of military might and mechanical mastery.

From the moment you arrive, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped onto a film set. Slip into a camo jacket, helmet and ear defenders, and you’re ready to join the crew. After a quick safety briefing, you’ll clamber aboard the mighty Spartan armoured vehicle, affectionately nicknamed the “sports tank.” Why? Because it’s not just built for brawn; it’s got brains and beauty too, powered by a roaring Jaguar E-Type 4.2-litre, 6-cylinder petrol engine delivering over 200 horsepower. This beast can reach speeds of up to 50 mph (yes, even backwards!), thanks to its clever seven forward and reverse gears.

As you thunder across the terrain, you’ll get to experience the raw power of Britain’s engineering at its best. Peek out from the top, stand in the turret, or grab the commander’s seat for the ultimate front-row view, each position gives you a unique thrill. The Spartan’s lightweight aluminium design means this isn’t your typical sluggish tank ride; it’s fast, agile and guaranteed to get your adrenaline pumping.

This unforgettable tank experience makes the perfect gift for anyone aged 12 and up who loves adventure, speed, or just doing something completely different. Whether it’s a birthday surprise, a father’s day treat, or a memorable day out, it’s a brilliant way to give someone a story they’ll never stop telling.
