What Can I Expect

Can you do private tank drives in Scotland? Yes you can! You've come to the right place to book exclusive one to one and family tank driving experiences. Choose between the Stirling or Bridge of Weir locations for your private session.

You will be driving a genuine FV432 APC (that's Armoured Personnel Carrier). These full-tracked tanks served as the backbone of the Armed Forces and indeed this particular tank is ex-British Army.

This tank and hundreds like it, would have been deployed in war zones and at training bases around the world. They are versatile and take on many roles, from field ambulances and soldier transport, to command vehicles and 81mm mortar carriers.

The beauty of the 432 is in its simplicity. It's basically a box of armoured, all-welded steel that can resist shelling and blasts. The tank is also surprisingly agile, (despite weighing in at 18-tons) and you'll get to find out when you are at the helm.

What makes these Scottish venues stand out is the fact that they are natural habitat for the FV432. Rugged, wet, muddy and full of inclines. Just what this tank loves.

To make your tank driving experience extra special, these vouchers are specifically for exclusive bookings. You can either go for a one-to-one personal lesson, which gives you sole access to the tank and 20-minutes of drive time just for you. Or you can opt for an exclusive family booking, when it'll be only your group of up to four who will be on the tank together.

All drivers will get a comprehensive briefing so you know how the controls work. It all feels really different inside a tank (there are hatches and periscopes and all sorts!) and it's sure to be like nothing else you have ever driven.

Buy your vouchers for exclusive and private tank drives in Scotland now and get ready to rumble in your full-tracked APC!
