Jaguar International Drive Day

This time next week I will be preparing to head off on a whirlwind trip to Spain for an International Drive Day with Jaguar.

From London I am on a charter flight to Pamplona Airport and then a road drive to Circuito De Navarra.

Circuito de Navarra is a motorsport race track that opened in June 2010 near Los Arcos in the Navarre region of Northern Spain.

It is a 3.933 km permanent road course that hosts the Superleague Formula series and the FIA GT1 World Championship.

We will be test driving the new Jaguar 380PS All Wheel Drive Sport and also the new XF which will be in New Zealand in November.

Needless to say my excitement outweighs the 50 hours of flying time in 5 days I can anticipate.
