Don’t get confused between Mercedes Benz World and Brooklands Museum - because they are totally separate venues with a security fence in between them. MBW is fundamentally a Mercedes dealership and showroom that also has a display of classic and racing cars which changes from time to time- plus some simulators a cinema with a film about the history of Mercedes Benz a couple of restaurants and a shop. There are also the track and off road driving experiences out the back and if you do everything you can spend a good half a day there easily plus lunch - but be warned - although entry is free everything else is quite expensive. Brooklands Museum is a more traditional museum format with an entry cost and static displays of cycles motorbikes cars buses and planes - plus a simulator where you can drive an F1 car around the original circuit a cafe and a shop. They have various special days when they get some of the museum cars out and drive them around and sometimes give passenger rides. If you do everything you can spend a full day there easily

I've read some of the other replies and they seem to cover the question. I would add that it is possible to sit in most of the cars and there are always staff on hand to help, and they don't push you to buy. However its not the sort of place you can let your kids run free, plus some must of the cars are museum items and so are only to be looked at.

I can't add anything to what has already been said, only that it is well worth the visit if you love cars.

Unfortunately your 17 year old friend would not be able to drive him/herself as a full driving licence is definitely required. However, passenger ride is an option - and that's pretty exciting too! Next best thing until your friend has passed the driving test... have fun! You'll enjoy the visit to Mercedes Benz World - there's also so much else to see and do apart from the driving experiences.

I think others have answered the question best to go on line or call the site.

Dear cantwait4nyc, Many thanks for patience in awaiting a reply to your question regarding our Mud Laps experiences. We do not have a minimum age to participate as a passenger upon this experience, as booster seats can be provided for any guest under 1.3meters in height to ensure both comfort and safety. We recommend from ages 4yrs and up as this off-roading experience has multiple hair-raising moments which may affect the enjoyment of our youngest guests. We hope to see you in the near future at Mercedes-Benz World. Many thanks
