Having had a second look at the small print it's actually paying £95 for allowing them to try and sell you new VXRs, I suspect.

demonstration, experiences... makes me wonder how much of the day you'll end up behind the wheel rather than being hustled around 5 to a car by an instructor/salesman.

Still, I know a few guys who are doing one in a couple of weeks so I'll let you know how it went. Two of them are innocuous-looking retired Caterham owners (affectionately known as "saga sevens"). If they do get the chance to get behind the wheel, however, VX had better hope they have plenty of spare tyres and brakes to hand.  ;D

Thinking about it, though, turning up and sneaking on track in a project Omega and wiping the floor with all their expensive VXR toys would be a hoot!
