Based in the heart of Lincolnshire, Manby Motorplex is one of the largest, self-contained, activity centres in the UK, boasting not only an area of 470 acres, that includes 25 acres of tarmac and over 100 acres of off-road terrain, but its own airstrip too. As a former airfield, space is not a problem.
Manby Motorplex has a long military history – the venue is a former airfield, RAF Manby, active during the Second World War. Now it houses some great ex-military vehicles, the most obvious being the Chieftain tank standing sentry at the venue entrance. Others are for sale, while a key part of the collection, a restoration work in progress, is a Centurion AVRE.
