THIS MONTH, J’AIME’S RESIDENT RACING DRIVER AND MOTORS EXPERT MARTIN PLOWMAN ROUNDS<br />
UP SOME CHRISTMAS DRIVING-EXPERIENCE GIFT IDEAS FOR THE CAR MAD PERSON IN YOUR LIFE<br />
Don’t hate me for saying<br />
this, but here’s a gentle<br />
reminder that Christmas<br />
is just around the corner.<br />
Yes, it’s only November, but<br />
Slade and Cliff Richard will<br />
be dominating the airwaves<br />
again before you know it.<br />
If, like me, you always<br />
struggle to come up with<br />
something fun and original<br />
for your car-mad other-half,<br />
then hopefully I can help<br />
sprinkle some Christmas<br />
knowledge on you.<br />
I’ve made a list of cool<br />
driving experiences that will fit most budgets for the<br />
car-mad person in your family.<br />
TRIPLE SUPERCAR BLAST – FROM £99PP<br />
First on my list is a cheap but cheerful supercar<br />
experience. If you’re looking for an inexpensive way<br />
to treat someone to drive not just one but three (!?)<br />
cars of their dreams, this might be a good option<br />
for you. The ‘Triple Supercar Blast’ package from<br />
TrackDays.com is about the cheapest deal on the<br />
THE ASTON MARTIN<br />
EXPERIENCE AT SILVERSTONE<br />
IS THE PERFECT TREAT FOR<br />
THE CAR LOVER IN YOUR LIFE<br />
market right now, starting as low as £99. In this deal,<br />
you get to choose from a selection of cars, including<br />
the Ariel Atom, Lamborghini Gallardo Super<br />
Leggera and Aston Martin V8 Vantage, to name a<br />
few. On the day you or your partner will get to drive<br />
three different supercars for two laps (three miles)<br />
each around a track with a professional instructor.<br />
At just £33 per car, it seems almost too good to be<br />
true? Before you ask what the catch is, there is no<br />
catch - other than you don’t get to drive for very long<br />
and don’t expect to be entertained in the glamour<br />
of Silverstone or Rome! Think<br />
disused RAF airport tracks and<br />
portacabin canteen hospitality.<br />

ASTON MARTIN<br />
EXPERIENCE AT<br />
SILVERSTONE – FROM<br />
£179PP<br />
For the next level up in price<br />
and quality, you have the Aston<br />
Martin Experience at Silverstone.<br />
Silverstone, as you well know, is<br />
the home of the British Grand<br />
Prix, so what better way to<br />
experience this iconic track for the<br />
first time than in a gorgeous Aston<br />
