Driving Experience Days: Experience the thrill of being a professional fire-fighter
during this exciting fire engine ride in Bicester! The Dennis RS
Fire Engine is an absolute beauty of a machine, and with a pumping
capacity of 4500 l/min and a maximum speed of 70+mph on road,
you're guaranteed an utterly unforgettable day.
On arrival at the track you'll first greet the staff and
register your details, then follow the instructor out towards the
mammoth vehicle for your adrenaline-fuelled passenger ride.
The
instructor will talk you through the various controls of the fire
engine, the functions that allow it to operate, and how these
vehicles have been modified through time to increase efficiency
when saving lives.
Once you're comfortable, it's time to set off!
The instructor will take you round the purpose-built track with all
the skill of a fully-trained fireman, showcasing the burliness of
the fire engine and demonstrating how firemen act when that all
important emergency call comes.
With a 10.
6 litre, 240bhp V8
Perkins diesel engine doing 8 miles per gallon, this is one burly
beast.
The Dennis V8 Fire Engine Ride in Oxford is a wonderful
experience gift for fans of large vehicles and the fire service,
and since this activity is a passenger ride, it can be enjoyed by
everyone! Spend an afternoon in the lovely Bicester countryside for
a driving experience you'll remember for a lifetime.
