6th Gear Experience Anmeldelser 

My experience was bought as a 60th Birthday present and what a fabulous day I had.
Despite rain being on and off most of the time I got to drive the Aerial Atom(got thoroughly soaked lol) Ferrari and Lambo as well as a hot lap in a Focus RS.
All the instructors were friendly and professional and encouraged me to use the cars to the maximum of my potential.
If you are thinking of booking with 6th Gear based on my experience I would say go for it I had a day I will remember for a long time.

Triple Supercar VIP Thrill - Elvington airstrip. Bought for husband as an xmas gift - his delay in organising it once received, hence not driving until September. He drove the Ariel Atom, Audi R8 and was due to drive the Ferrari but the ground staff let him change to the Lamborghini whilst we were there due to a mix up on the original booking. He totally loved the R8 and wished he had had more time in it - maybe next time!. Also raved about the Atom. Really well organised event and the check in staff allowed you to ride out of time if others were not there or the cars became available. Instructors were really good at explaining every thing and putting you as ease. Also had a demo lap in the Ford Focus and the package came with all digital photos, a certificate and one photo printout. Overall a really good afternoon out. (Husband - Pete Mitchell)

Double super car taster - Elvington airstrip. I had a fantastic time today. I drove a GTR and a BMW i8. Really well organised event. Instructors were really good at explaining every thing and putting you as ease. Also had a hot lap in a Ford Focus. Overall a really good day out. (Husband - Allan Sissons)

I bought this Teen Track Treble Taster for my son (12) last year and he had a wonderful time today at Dunsfold Park, Cranleigh, driving his 3 favourite super cars and doing a hot lap with a professional driver. His smile after he had driven the Ferrari was ear to ear! Staff were great, really helpful even tho it was busy and the cars were at roughly the times booked. When I watched the in car videos at home I could see that the instructors were great with him, lots of advice and tips but chatty and also let him have fun safely - I was worried he might only be allowed to drive quite slowly but they did allow a short burst of speed which was enough to let him properly experience the car. We will definitely be booking again and I have already recommended to friends and family.
There are a few additional costs if you want pictures and videos etc, we weren’t given a hard sell though and we are pleased we have them. I took plenty of great pictures myself too.
We were lucky with the weather, not wet or too hot, check the weather before you go as there is not a lot of shelter on an airfield! I took a camping chair which was a good move. There were toilets and refreshments available.

Perranporth circuit cornwall. Had as a 50th birthday gift.
Loved it . Drove a Lamborghini and an R8 around the circuit. Although quick it was awesome. Loved putting both cars flat out up the straights hearing that incredible engine work hard.
Had a fast lap from the ‘pro’ chap in the RS Focus which was just great to finish off the experience. I won’t do it but I might knock a star off my review simply because I didn’t have all day to play!
Great fun, well organised and a beautiful day to enjoy my ‘boys fun day’

Absolutely awesome! Had as a birthday present from my wife and kids. Everyone there was friendly and helpful from booking in, to being called to the cars, instructors and even the photograph people.
Cars were brilliant, instructors really helpful with tips but made it fun. Even though it was busy got in cars exactly when the time said I would. Brilliant day and booking again asap. Thank you all for a great day, Joel

Drove two Porsches, a Lambo and Ariel atom and loved every minute (although struggled with the gears in the atom!). Also had a hot lap by pro driver that was really good.

You get good deals on the day as well so my son had a hot lap in a gtr as well.

Would definitely recommend!

Received the voucher as a gift. Unable to make the one and only date they offered in my part of the country. As such, voucher expired. Called the following month to ask of there was any way I could extend the voucher given the lack of dates available. was simply told the voucher was expired so that money was lost and there's nothing they 'could' about it. There's plenty they could do, but there's nothing they WOULD do.. Very poor experience with this company, extremely disappointed with them. I do not recommend booking with them as a gift.

At castle Combe on 27/8/22. Have been on these driving experiences before and all been a bit naff with being told to keep revs down or not go in certain gears and was expecting a bit the same but I was wrong . On one of the jet test days of the year 7 of us turned up mid afternoon and hot in all 3 cars in reasonably quick time . My 9 year went round in the Ferrari with al b (written on the ticket) and he loved it . All three guys that took me out were great especially the third guy Connor in the 997 turbo . There’s a few up sales but you get that everywhere , you can always say no . I done a few extra laps with Conner and he was getting me to go quicker and quicker . Thoroughly enjoyed it 😎

Had a great day at castle combe yesterday driving 4 supercars. The instructors were all excellent giving constant feedback to help improve your driving lines, gear usage, breaking points etc. I will hopefully do another day in the future so I can drive some of the other cars. I would highly recommend this company and the castle combe circuit. Thanks for a great experience.

Had 6 car experience, first 5 were within about 1 hour, had to wait for last one two and a half hours. All staff were very efficient as a lot of people were waiting for the same car. Can't really fault this company. Brilliant drives.,especially Porsche 997 turbo convertible, needs extra stars!!!!! This was at Castle Combe yesterday.

Had a Teen Track Attack Double at Stafford bought for my son’s birthday. Arrived early as advised to and was called 20 mins early for his 1st experience 👍🏻 Both instructors were really good and considering he’d never been behind the wheel of a car they allowed him to drive at speed. On watching the videos back they gave him clear instructions and he even overtook cars on the track. We bought the memory stick and then upgraded to have all the photos put on which we found a great idea. We did pay for the passenger drive, a little steep in price for one lap but he enjoyed seeing what the BMW i8 could do after he had driven it.

Couldn't get the car we had voucher for, any date or location. All locations miles from my home and it turns out you only get 10 minutes worth. I had 2 vouchers but had to wait 4 hours between!
Very unhelpful, would not let me exchange for something more suitable after saying they could. Waste of money.

My booking experience through 6th gear was terrible. I ended up paying an additional £80 in administration fees and it felt like their only motive was to rinse you at each opportunity. Would not recommend!

Cars are decent and my son enjoyed driving them. Staff were friendly enough. Joke comes when you're pressured into buying the excess - why are insurances not part of the price when booking? Seems just another way to fleece customers.

This company's booking system is rubbish, failed to take our booking and their customer service is worse. They then charged us to re-book the booking and haven't responded to my complaint email which they suggested I write

Great experience at Elvington, this was our first time with 6th gear (done other driving experience with other companies) but I can honestly say 6th gear are the best.
All the staff are so friendly and got loads of knowledge I drove the Lambo, ferrari 440 and the FTypeR.My favourite is defo the FTypeR.Cannot wait to go back .
This was a birthday gift from my hubby ,I waited for months to go and was not disappointed at all.
Thanks again guys see you all soon

I attended Anglesey Circuit. It was a birthday present and was timed at a point in my life where I find myself priced out of car ownership and had to sell my beloved motor a week before. I was so down about it, I guess my family must have been worrying whether I'd ever pull myself together. 6thgearexperience picked me up off the floor. Everyone was very friendly and it seemed pretty well organised. I had an early start and there was hardly any hanging around. Besides, I was happy to wait and experience the thrill of anticipation :) I was as keen to drive the circuit as the cars and I'd throughly recommend this venue. The track is fantastic, staff at the cafe are lovely, and the experience as a whole exceeded my expectations. I thought it would be all health and safely and rigid instruction, but no, I was really allowed to boot it (responsibly). The instructors I had were absolutely fantastic. I wish I could remember names, so forgive me, the whole day was a sort of out of body experience, but the guys who guided me in the lambo and the Arial were really faultless. Friendly to meet, really concise and on point guidance, and reassuring company. I've never driven on a track before, nor anything with this level of performance outside Gran Turismo on PlayStation. but the input I was given by the instructors made me feel I was really living my dream. I'd chosen the Arial as a sort of wild card alternative to the usual supercar fleet, but how glad I am that I did! That was the most visceral thrill I have ever had and I am since dreaming of driving it again.
I know how expensive car ownership is, and I have a good idea the running costs of the cars in the 6thgearexperience fleet. Add to that all the personel on hand to make it happen, and an expensive day for me actually turns out to be good value for what's on offer.
I've read some of the reviews here, and I think there are some that don't appreciate the true cost of running some of these cars, not to mention the risk of handing them over to strangers, and then the instructors balancing the fine line between supporting you and self-preservation! It's an impressive operation and yes it was over all too quickly, but I was so thrilled by my experience I've written my longest review by a long way. Thank you to all at 6thgearexperience :)

My mother brought a drive a Lamborghini for my husband for his Birthday and we finally went last week (delayed due to covid.)

We decided to upgrade to the Stafford track, but we wish we didn't.

When we turned up we were surprised that it was just a track and a couple of buildings (office, loo and cafe).

They recommend turning up 45 mins early, DO NOT DO THIS! We turned up 5 mins before our scheduled time and was fine. If we'd turned up 45 mins early then we would have been very bored hanging around.

We registered at the office, and within a few mins my husband's turn was up.

In the office they try to upsell you extra rides, insurance and a demo lap. We opted for the insurance but I don't even think we needed that considering how quick his turn was up. I deffo wouldn't recommend choosing the demo lap either. It would last 2 mins and be a waste of £10.

Sadly this is where we were left disappointed, the track was only 0.5 miles long and he only got to do 3 laps. You also share the track with other drivers so be aware that you maybe stuck behind a slow driver.

We drove (in our car) for over an hour to reach the track and then he was all done in 5 mins. I expected that you got to spend more time in the car than you do.

They don't even give you a fastest lap time or anything like that. It would be interesting if they had a leaderboard of fastest times, that may even entice people to have an extra go or three, but no. It was like going in for your covid booster. In and out without the staff caring. Also, it would have been nice to have a photo outside of the car, especially as I imagine most people receive these experiences as gifts. I understand it's probably not wise to have people on the track taking photos, but there really should be an opportunity to take a photo with the car.

He got the bonus high speed lap, which wasn't in the Lamborghini as expected, it was in a focus. It was fast and he enjoyed it, but it would have been better in the Lambo. Also, I tried to go into the fast lap with him (there are 4 seats), but as I didn't have a ticket they said no. It's a shame, I understand it's health and safety, but I wouldn't have minded signing a waiver form and hop into the back, especially as it wasn't me driving.

It was roughly £65ish for the voucher, and I think that's expensive, £40 would be more appropriate.

My husband enjoyed it but it wasn't worth the hassle. He wouldn't recommend using this company. You were hustled in and out of the car like sheep, it was just a conveyor belt of people.

I had my first Super car experience with 6th Gear at Perranporth Cornwall on Sunday 1st May 2022 and I went there on my own without judgement as a female, everyone from the lady how registered me in was 110 % Something I would highly recommend for a truly unforgettable experience of a life time 🙏💜 I drove a awesome Lamborghini LP360🚘🧡
Audi R8🚘💚
Hot lap in a Ferrari 🚘💜
The young man reading out the names was also awesome 👌 he was friendly with everyone and had a great sense of humour 👍
And the young girl helping out with the safety lap was a real pleasure to catch to in-between driving 🚗😁
I would definitely recommend to have it video 📹👍😊 it was such fun to watch it 😄
These guys and girls are there again in August of this year, so for a awesome day out with awesome people and awesome supercars go for it 😀🚘💯
