Description

We’ve all wanted to know what it’s like to be a trucker, positioned high up with serious power at your disposal and endless road to eat up. Well, this is a real chance to feel like a king of the road in a monstrous DAF truck. These DAF XF trucks are renowned in the world of haulage and with armchair-style seats as well as bunk beds, they’re pretty luxurious. If that wasn’t enough, there’s also a 45 foot supercar transporter attached to the back. After a briefing, take control of the lorry for 15 minutes, negotiating round a specially-designed course, learning to slalom and reverse park (not easy in one of these). With surprisingly light steering and an instructor to offer tips throughout, be sure to feel like a lifelong trucker in no time. Toot toot!
