For Sale & Hire!
If you're looking to get yourself a track car, this could be the perfect opportunity. Our 2005 supercharged Mini Cooper S is available to rent or buy. You can hire the car for a trackday and if you like it and want to buy it, we'll knock the rental fee off the sale price!
We can supply the car with a fresh NCT if you want to use it on the road or if you're looking for a track only car, we can do a better deal without NCT.
Our arrive & drive Mini Cooper S car hire packages include the trackday fee, 1 to 1 tuition, fuel, tyres, full technical support and helmet hire so you really do just arrive & drive! All you'll need is your driver's licence!
The Car:
Our Cooper S is a completely standard road car, ready for you to put your touch on it! We have thoroughly tested it on track and it is extremely capable and most important of all, great fun!
This original R53 version is the one to have in terms of reliability, as opposed to later less reliable models that were turbocharged. This particular car also has the rare factory fitted limited slip diff which is a huge plus point for track use. It's a proper old school hot hatch with light and nimble handling, plenty of power, lift off oversteer when pushed, plus it has the cool supercharger whine!
We have just completed a full overhaul, fixing all the niggly little issues. The car is on the button and ready to jump in and enjoy!

With the arrive & drive package your instructor will have plenty of time to assess your driving and will be able to offer detailed advice on all aspects of your track driving.

Your instructor will continue to be available for the remainder of your session.
Our arrive & drive packages are great if you’re serious about improving your driving or if you want to get out on track but don't have access to a suitable car. It's a great way to experience a trackday for the first time, safe in the knowledge that you have a seasoned professional beside you the whole time!
Seat Time:
Our Arrive and Drive packages offer more seat time than any other driving experience! We offer the packages in either half day or full day. Track time is as follows:
- 10am Track goes live
- 1pm track closes for lunch
- 2pm track goes live
- 5.30pm track closes
*During winter, track time is reduced to 9.30am-4pm due to available light.
With any track driving experience, both you and the car will need to take breaks. We operate a 15 on / 15 off policy. After 15 mins on track you will probably start to get a bit hot under the collar, this is when concentration starts to go and mistakes start to happen. So after 15 mins you can take a break, get a drink and chat with your instructor. We find that a few minutes of down-time really helps to digest what they are trying to teach you.
Also, the car is built to compete in 15 minute races and as such benefits from a cool down period after 15 mins.

The arrive & drive packages are perfect for gifting. Vouchers to the value of the half day and full day packages are available above and any date can be selected at a later time. Vouchers are valid for 5 years. Just give us a call and we will get you booked in,
