What Can I Expect

Try an Aston Martin DB9 drive for a thrilling spin in what many agree is one of the finest modern day sports cars ever built! The DB9 was the first of the Aston Martin models to be created at the new design and manufacturing headquarters of the marque in Gaydon. It's a true delight to drive a British supercar!

It is a beautiful car from the outside, but what is the DB9 like on the inside? Savour every moment from first clasping the steering wheel in your hands, to when you get out and shut the door with a very satisfying and suitably solid 'clunk' after your drive. The Aston Martin DB9 will not disappoint.

Gingerly at first, you'll head out from the paddock area onto the main track. Getting used to the feel of the pedals, the low-slung seating position and that extravagantly long bonnet takes a fair bit of concentration. But as soon as you get on the first long straight and get a taste of the power from the superbly refined 5.9l V12 engine, you'll be smitten.

These Aston Martin DB9 thrill drives give you three or six miles around the circuit. If you go for the experience with the added hot lap, you get to view the track from a very different angle. After you have done your driving laps, it's time to hop into the passenger seat of a performance car. Engine at running temperature and tyres nice and warm, one of the centre's professional drivers will be at the wheel, showing you the best racing line of the track.

On your Aston Martin DB9 drive you will be at the helm of a truly homegrown supercar. Even Top Gear decided the DB9 was just too cool for the 'cool wall' on their TV show after driving it. So, this Aston Martin was immediately and justifiably awarded its own 'sub zero fridge' category. You simply have to drive this car!
