Extremely well organised.........exciting plus!

Peter 14 April 2025

The whole process was incredibly well organised and my wife had a fantastic experience. She is tiny in size, 153cm tall and 58 kg, so was worried she wouldn't be able to drive the big V8. But the team were fantastic and made all arrangements to accommodate her on a wonderful 59th birthday surprise.
