Luckily my fiancee is a petrol head, took her on a track day as a passenger and she loved it. So I think she will appreciate it (I've also bought her some other pressies, that's not her only one )

I'm a bit worried that she is a bit too much of a petrol head and might drive the car a bit too enthusiastically so I am bound to be a bit annoying and nervous when she is driving. She's a decent driver but her car is a 1.4 Clio and she has little to no experience of RWD, let alone one with no traction control and 240bhp!

And she will be coming to the Ring in April, she already knows that, debating whether to let her drive a lap.

Hehe, well seriously is it viable to get an Academy Day or similar bundled up with the insurance thing as part of her present? That way you get peace of mind, she gets lots of fun and learning?
