On your arrival at Tank Driving Scotland headquarters, we will transform you quicker than Superman changing in a phone box to look like a real squaddie! Equipped with your Kevlar helmet and your camouflage gear, the only optional bit is the camouflage face paint. Before being marched out to the tank track, we do make sure you know the basic controls of the vehicle. How to steer, where the accelerator is, and most importantly… the brakes! It’s a common misconception that people think all big things (i.e. space shuttles and tanks) are complicated to drive. You will manage! Weighing in at over 18 tonnes, our tanks have 6.8 litre supercharged Rolls Royce engines. These powerful engines are what allow the vehicles to navigate the most taxing of terrain. The Major General is a one-to-one experience – where you will enjoy personal tuition with one of our instructors. During this time, you will come into contact with some pretty large humps and bumps! We do a flat drive first, then some small humps, then onto a few rather large ones. Also, Scottish weather permitting, a 'sheep-dip' drive through water (no sheep are actually involved or harmed during this experience). Why not bring your friends or family with you on the day of your experience? They can ride in the tank with you, or take shots (Photo and video) from our observation bunker in the centre of the course. Please see our Civilian Voucher for further details. After your experience, as long as the tank comes back in one piece, you will be awarded a Tank Driving Scotland Certificate of Achievement. (looks good on the wall). You’ll be with us for around an hour and receive personal one-to-one tank driving for a minimum of half an hour. The Major General Experience is exhilarating, challenging and something you will not forget in a hurry! Book it as a great gift for family or friends, or go-on, treat yourself! Please note to drive our tanks, you must be over 5ft in height. If you are under 5ft, you can come as a Civilian or Commander for a ride in the vehicles.
