BMW and MotorSports Vision

BMW have tamed up with MotorSport Vision to create an unforgettable experience for motor sports fans.

AUTOMOTIVE demonstrators MotorSport Vision (MSV) will now offer a package of high octane ‘M’ car thrills on some of Europe’s best circuits. By signing up to the RaceMaster experience anyone can gt behind the wheel of the amazing BMW M3. MSV’s expert instructors will help get the best out of their fleet of BMW M3 Coupés at former British Grand Prix circuit Brands Hatch in Kent and Oulton Park in Cheshire.

As part of the RaceMaster package thrill-seekers also get the chance to undertake some flying laps of the circuit in a Formula Brands single-seater race car. MSV will also be introducing an exclusive M3-only experience at Bedford Autodrome.

BMW are also looking after the next generation of drivers by letting youngsters aged 13 and over who are above 4’ 10” gt behind the wheel of a BMW 1 Series. With no traffic around they can practice car control and hazard perception on the safety of an empty track.

Jonathan Palmer, Chief Executive of MotorSport Vision, said:

“BMW is a name synonymous with motorsport success, from its race winning Formula One team to its three World Touring Car titles with British superstar Andy Priaulx at the wheel. I’m delighted BMW has chosen MotorSport Vision as a partner for its UK-based driving experiences, as their outstanding machinery and expertise will elevate our driving packages to an even higher level, to give our guests a truly unforgettable experience.”

Tim Abbott, Managing Director for BMW UK Ltd, said:

“With the operation MSV runs and the circuits at which they are based, BMW couldn’t wish for a more logical partner. MSV perfectly complements the ethos of BMW M while at the same time provides the next generation of drivers with their first taste of a BMW and the joy of driving.”
