Mercedes Benz World anyone???
« on: 29 June 2008, 01:53:30 »
Would anyone be interested in a meeting at Mercedes Benz World at Cobham?

It's quite a good day out, letting you play in all of their new cars and laugh at the poor quality they have the cheek to charge £100,000 for! There is also a play area for kids, interactive displays and (If booked in advance) AMG driving experiences from £25.00.

Best of all entry is free!

Let me know if anyone is interested with suggested dates and I will arrange it.

Unfortunately no keys!!! but they have everything open from A Class to S Class including all of the sports models (SLK, CLK, SL, CLS) and 4x4s (ML & GL) There are also all of the AMG models. There are historic models and F1 cars (Not for playing in!)

Interactive experiences, such as travelling along a CLK production line (All in 3D with moving seats etc.)

All in all its a good FREE day out for all of the family.

There is the opportunity for children over 1.5m in height to have a driving lesson in a Smart or A Class (Must be pre-booked) and for the grown ups AMG driving experiences on their own track and circular skid pan (Again must be pre-booked)

Sounds like the play doesn't entail shredding sets of tyres on a private test track then.  :'(

Still, sounds like a good day out. :y

BTW: You're not the Pete Wright from the Folkestone area who used to convoy to Le Mans with me are you?

You should be quite safe, although I have never met you wife and daughter  :)

There are plenty of things to do there including interactive displays and shows.

Re: Mercedes Benz World anyone? 4th October
« Reply #14 on: 24 August 2008, 12:56:47 »
Would like to propose 4th October with a 10.30am meeting time, this should give anyone who would like a driving experience time to get it booked.

Can I have numbers by usual copy & paste method please?
