For the ultimate thrill, take the chance to drive not one but two of our military vehicles! With a selection of vehicles from several different national armies, you’re bound to find two that spark your interest.
Upon arrival, you will choose which two vehicles you wish to drive. You will then be kitted out in a tank suit (if needed) and given a helmet before heading to our military vehicle track with your instructor. Following a safety briefing and short history lesson about the vehicles, you will get to drive two laps of the track in each vehicle (four laps in total). For this activity, you can choose from:
Ex-Military DAF Lorry
The backbone of the British Army. This 4 x 4 vehicle is powered by a Leyland 313 turbocharged water-cooled four-stroke diesel engine coupled to a five-speed all-synchromesh manual gearbox and two-speed transfer case. Ever wanted to drive a truck? Here’s your chance!
BV 206 Hagglund
The vehicle that can go literally anywhere! Used by Her Majesty’s Special Forces, the Hagglund is quite a remarkable ride and really comes into its own on our track here at Armourgeddon.
Ex-Military Fire Tender
Who wouldn’t want to try driving a fire engine?! Sitting in the central seat, this vehicle really challenges your manoeuvring skills. You’ll be left wondering how they drive them on the roads!
FV432
The stalwart of our fleet here at Armourgeddon. The FV432 is an armoured personnel carrier mounted with a 40mm air cannon. Commonly used for the transportation of infantry to the battlefield, the FV432 gives you a real taste of what it’s like to manoeuvre a tracked vehicle.
Ex-Military Land Rover
A classic military vehicle which was used for a variety of tasks in the army. Behind the wheel of this vehicle, you’ll get the chance to discover its capabilities on our off-road track.
