Children as young as 10 are being given the chance to drive six litre-engined luxury Bentleys thanks to a Nottingham driving school.
Bentley's Flying Spur model reaches a top speed of 195mph - but the keys to these twin turbo machines are now being handed to 10-17-year olds.
It's all down to the Young Driver school, based on Queen's Drive in the city, which aims to teach pupils from a young age so they are safer by the time they're road-legal.
Those attending the school can now ditch the core fleet of Vauxhall Corsas in favour of the Bentley - at a cost of £50 for a 30 minute lesson.
Sue Waterfield, head of marketing at Young Driver, said: "This makes an ideal treat and youngsters love having the opportunity to get behind the wheel of such a powerful and luxurious car – as would most adults.
"The Bentley Flying Spur is a very special vehicle and watching the road from this hand-crafted English saloon car takes driving to a whole new level.
"It’s lots of fun for the young driver, but also, it gives them that experience of being behind the wheel of a powerful car – and encourages them to consider how different cars handle, and what a responsibility it is to be in control of them. There will be no testing out of the 0-60 capabilities."
And for parents worried about letting their loved ones loose behind the wheel of the vehicles - they'll be able to sit in the back seat while the youngsters drive.
But those eager to jump straight into the luxury cars will have to wait - as pupils will need to have had at least an hour in the Vauxhall Corsa before being allowed in the Bentley.
