BMW Melbourne Driver Training from $350* per person
Special offer* for BMW Car Club Members for a limited time (conditions apply^)
2010 marked a new beginning for BMW Driver Training starting with a new and exciting model line up.
Participants will experience up to four different models at Phillip Island Raceway including:
123d Sports Hatch with M Sport Pack
135i Sport Coupe
323i Sedan with M Sport and Innovations Pack
M3 Sedan
M3 Coupe
The 123d and 135i will come with the latest BMW Efficient Dynamics technology. All non M models will be fitted with automatic transmission and the M3 Coupe and Sedans will be fitted with the F1 inspired Double Clutch Transmission (DCT).
BMW Driver Training provides one of the best insights into the technology utilised within our current range of vehicles, enabling us to demonstrate safety features such as ABS, DTC and DSC.
Experiencing features such as these, combined with the sheer agility and handling of a BMW within the track environment will reinforce an understanding of what makes a BMW ‘The Ultimate Driving Machine’.
The BMW Melbourne program from $350* will be based on the BMW Driver Training Intensive Course led by Chief Instructor, LeMans 24hr and Bathurst winner, Geoff Brabham.
This Intensive program is designed to provide a solid foundation for performance driving. During this half day course you will experience a number of different situations that may be encountered at touring speeds, including slalom, motorkhana, ideal lines and emergency braking.
* To be eligible for the BMW Car Club subsidised rate of $350 you must be a current BMW Car Club Member and course must be booked and paid for by Friday 18 June 2010. A rate of $495 applies to all other participants.
