New and Upgraded BMW Driving Experience at Mondello Park announced.

Mondello Park and BMW Ireland have announced that its BMW Driving Experience programme for 2019 has been significantly upgraded. Now with even more M, the 2019 BMW Driving Experience includes BMW M2 and M4 Competition models at Ireland’s only FIA licenced International motor racing circuit.

In addition, all courses now include complementary hospitality in the VIP BMW Lounge, an individual BMW Lifestyle gift and certificate for all participants. Training begins behind the wheel of a MINI Cooper S with a professional instructor at all times to ensure customers make the most of the experience. During a series of guided pace laps, customers experience pure BMW M genes with the BMW M2 Competition or BMW M4 Competition or both with the Ultimate BMW Driving Experience package. All participants can round off the racing experience with a Virtual Reality (VR) experience in Mondello Park’s paddock area.

The new BMW M2 Competition is the perfect match on Ireland’s only FIA leading motor racing circuit with its impressive 410 horsepower and 550Nm of torque from its Bi-turbo six-cylinder petrol engine. This M2 sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.2 seconds with its six-speed automatic gearbox, while the top speed has been limited to 250 km/h. High-precision Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) has been introduced in the strut and bulkhead strut for increased front section rigidity. There’s a new cooling system, including new front skirt and larger, redesigned BMW kidney in high-gloss black. New dual exhaust system with two electrically-controlled flaps provides the distinctive M sound while the M TwinPower Turbo technology delivers outstanding efficiency.

As well as the regular range of track driving experiences, Mondello Park offer a range of customisable BMW and MINI Driving Experiences and places importance on meeting the customer’s specific desires. A team specialising in corporate events and incentives works closely with customers to put together packages tailored to the customer’s requirements.

BMW and MINI Driving Experiences play an important role to improving driving safety on public roads, while at the same time conveying the joy of driving for which BMW is renowned. For further details please visit https://www.mondellopark.ie/bmw-driving-experience/.
