Looking for the perfect present for the performance car fan in your family? May I humbly recommend a day out at the Porsche Experience Centre. I was there recently for the launch of the Panamera saloon and it’s a great facility. Built right next door to Silverstone circuit in Northants, there’s a variety of track days on offer, including a chance to drive historic 911s. Most incorporate the hilarious ‘kick-plate’, a machine hidden in the track surface which randomly boots the back-end out left or right and invites you to catch the skid before you spin. There’s also several low-friction corners where you can practice your Stig-like power slides. Check out www.porsche.com/silverstone for details. And if you want to get the youngest family member interested, why not go for the 911 pedal car (above). Yours for £187. Yes, you read that right.
