Mercedes-Benz World is a facility at the Brooklands motor racing circuit in Weybridge, Surrey, UK. [1] It opened on 29 October 2006.
Mercedes-Benz World has five courses for learning advanced skills and trying out an AMG. [2]. The adjacent Brooklands Museum has a large collection of early motorcars, motorbikes and airplanes associated with Brooklands, as well as a cafe, a restaurant and a kids' area. Entry to the Mercedes complex is free to the public[3], for a not inconsiderable fee (£25.50 for two adults and a child, Aug 2011) visitors can enter Brooklands Museum and view the collection of historic cars and aircraft, including Concorde.
Mercedes-Benz World offers driving lessons to anyone over 1.5m tall. This means children as young as 8 or 9 can drive on part of the original Brooklands Circuit. [2]
The building is spread over three floors with over 100 cars on display, including a 300SL Gullwing as well as the McLaren Mercedes SLR sports car.
Arriva Guildford & West Surrey provides a contracted bus service linking Mercedes-Benz World to Weybridge railway station and Woking railway station.[4]
