What's it about?

Mercedes-Benz World is at Brooklands, Surrey. You can put cars to the test on handling circuits (although there's a charge for this) and there are exhibitions, interactive attractions and simulators.

How much does it cost?

Admission is free, it's open 7 days a week.

More info:

There's more information on its website: https://www.mercedes-benzworld.co.uk

    admission to the attraction is free, but driving on the tracks isn't. E.g. £100 for a 60 minute drive of an AMG/SLR or £375 for a half day. £25 for a 15 minute passenger ride.

    Is that all? That's a fantastic deal! There must be a catch, this is a £300k car! :rolleyes:

    My OH spent all last weekend there - he works for Mercedes as an instructor, so if you go you may get him sitting next to you!
    Ooh, I've gotta little star! What's that for then?!!

    Works?:confused:

    Yeah, yeah, I know it sounds like fun but would you like to sit next to some boy racer, sometimes without dual controls, and be blatted around a circuit? Admittedly he does get some small perks occasionally, like driving old Bentleys, Lambos, Nobles, etc; and he does get to work with a lot of the greats of F1, but he's frequently away from home or leaves very early (4:30 am!) to get to the circuits. An instructor was injured at Goodwood just last year - so just listen up anyone who has a go at these things - the instructor knows what he's talking about when he says slow down for the next corner!!!

    Ok - rant over - wouldn't mind a go meself actually as he gets some pretty neat clients too. My daughter was mortified to learn that he spent the day with Rowan Atkinson recently, she just loves Mr Bean!

    Mercedes Benz World is Great!
    We got taken there with my 4yr old by friends and had a blast - loved the building and the chance to sit in every single mercedes benz in the showroom! My son enjoyed the whole experience and the building itself is amazing - thoroughly recommend to amuse the kids and for any car enthusiast! Its free to visit - coffee shop and toilet facilities lovely too!

    My 6-year-old prefers the nearby Brooklands Community Park.

    Much more fun.
