What Can I Expect

Tank driving Scotland - ripping it up in a fully-tracked tank in bonny Scotland! Get ready to drive this ex-British Army APC FV432 tank at Bridge of Weir in Renfrewshire - it's going to be awesome.

Attention new recruits! Your first task of the day is to attend a tank briefing, where your instructors will show you the controls of the 432 tank, so at least you'll have some idea before you climb into the driving seat!

Seriously though, just because it's a massive 18 tonne tank doesn't mean it's that complicated to drive. So the gauntlet is down to see if you've got what it takes to go driving the tracked heavyweight around the Scottish countryside.

During your one-hour tank driving experience in this lovely part of Scotland, you'll be driving for up to 20 glorious minutes.

You'll command the tank on a run around the flat course and then you'll tackle the obstacles. Your heart will be pounding as you trundle towards the water troughs and the steeps. But fear not, your big mean military tank can take it all on!

And when you're not driving, you'll be riding in the crew compartment - and transporting soldiers is what this FV432 did out on the battlefield. We can't say it's comfy in there, but it is a proper laugh and all part of the experience!

Book your voucher to go tank driving in Scotland at Bridge of Weir and get ready for a whole load of full-tracked fun. Why not invite friends and family to join in the fun by riding as crew in the tank? You can purchase passenger tickets on the day.
