Published Wednesday, January 30, 2013

Simply turn up. Get into a Lamborghini, Bentley, Rolls Royce or Ferrari. And test drive the world’s most-coveted super-cars in what is being billed as the world’s first supercar test drive pit.

For most petrolheads who cannot afford these top-end auto brands it does seem like the chance of a lifetime.

Where? Atlantis, The Palm, Dubai. When? January 31. Why? Big Boys Toys 2013.

So, we asked the organisers whether this too good to be true offer is really too good to be true.Can anyone turn up and go pedal to the metal on a Lambo round a superfast track?

A person closely associated with the event said: “Whoever is interested and holds a valid driver’s license can register for a test drive.

“Of course, depending on the number of people wanting to jump into a super car, there might be some waiting time. But definitely organisers are very eager to make a ride possible for everybody,” came the reply.

So the Big Boys Toys 2013 is looking to go for broke this year it would seem.

The exhibition’s motto is ‘The Best Of!and ’ Biju Jayaraaj - Chief Executive Officer of the exhibition organiser, Artaaj, said: “We are proud to offer our visitors an eye-popping array of the world’s best cars and a once in a lifetime chance to take a Ferrari, Rolls Royce, Bentley, and other exclusive super cars for a spin!”.
