A little taste of Italy

Italy.  It's all about the food and the cars.  Ok, and a few dodgy politicians but at The Getaway Driver we don't get involved in such things.  Nope, we love Italy for its cars and pasta, things that are right up our autostrada, so we created a special Italian themed package to celebrate the little bit of Latin in all of us.  And of course we called it Bella Italia.
Our Bella Italia experience brings together an Alfa Romeo Spider, one of Italy's - maybe the world's - best sports cars, and some fine dining.  We've also included some appropriately romantic roads to create a day out to remember for just two.  Just pick up the keys to your Alfa from your choice of Getaway Driver start points in Yorkshire, Suffolk, Cotswolds or East Midlands.  We'll provide a day's driving route and arrange a lunch stop at a great local Italian restaurant we know.  Bellissimo.  As they say in Italy apparently.
We can't guarantee the sort of sunshine that ripens olives and tomatoes but with the top down on an Alfa Romeo Spider and some great British scenery, frankly not much else matters. The experience starts at 9am and finishes at 6pm and will include about 120 miles driving.

Your experience matters

Driving experiences.  Sipping an instant coffee in a cold nissan hut before hurtling around a damp race track in the middle of nowhere at the wheel of a tired Ferrari.  For £400 and two laps.
At The Getaway Driver that's not really our idea of fun.  The Getaway Driver is exactly what it says on the tin - we believe in the fun and excitement of really driving on real roads in great cars.  So we've created a load of new driving experiences that are all about just that.
The Getaway Driver Day, as the name suggests, is all about driving.  With a police pursuit driver in the passenger seat and the keys to a brilliant classic car like our Porsche 911 you'll learn how to drive quickly and safely on A roads and B roads. 
Ever wondered which Aston you'd buy when the time comes?  Ponder no more.  With our Aston Dilemma you can drive old and new, Aston DB6 coupe and DB9 Volante, and decide which you like best.  That's a day driving £250,000 worth of cars.
The Italians love cars and so do we.  The Getaway Driver's brand new Bella Italia package combines the best culinary and motoring delights of Britain's boot-shaped neighbour.
Spandex, Spandau and shoulder pads. Hmm, maybe not everything about the 1980s was great.  But they did make some fantastic cars during the decade that fashion forgot.  Relive the halcyon days of GTIs and rear wheel drive with our Back to the 80s experience.  Choose from our 1980s classic car fleet and hit the road. 
There is just something so wonderfully British about an open top car and country lanes.  Our Best of British Getaway brings those two things together.  Tour the countryside behind one of Britain's best sports cars - we provide the keys, the route and lunch.

Double oh heaven

We're happy to admit it here at The Getaway Driver that we're closet James Bonds.  Frankly, we think life would be a lot easier for all men if they just admitted the same.  After all, what can be cooler than taking the keys to a silver 1960s Aston Martin and gently purring off into the night with your partner down a gravel driveway? 

That's what our amazing Double Oh package gives you.  Be James Bond for the weekend driving a cool Aston Martin - choose from our DB6 or DB9 models - and stay at a fabulous country house hotel. 

If you fancy being Bond for the weekend but can’t stand Martinis then our Double Oh package has got to be the way to indulge your fantasy. Step into our beautiful £100,000 Aston Martin DB6 in silver or our stunning gunmetal DB9 Volante to enjoy some great driving roads, have lunch at a quiet country house hotel and then choose your afternoon activities – including pursuit driver training, clay pigeon shooting or spa treatments. 

The Double Oh weekend is for 2 people and includes luxury accommodation, 2 days use of the Aston Martin, touring routes, your choice of afternoon activity, champagne and a free gift.  The price is based on collection from our Worcestershire site on the edge of the Cotswolds.
