Motorists visiting Mercedes-Benz World in Weybridge, Surrey, can now treat themselves to the world's fastest fine-dining.
That's because the showroom's Gullwing Restaurant is now serving a menu put together using ingredients from the farm of Jody Scheckter, the 1979 Formula One World Champion.
In recent years Scheckter, who won his world title driving for Ferrari, has established an award-winning organic farm at Laverstoke Park in Hampshire.
The menu will include chicken liver parfait, rillette of pork cheeks and buffalo blue cheese, all produced using products from Scheckter's farm.
The Gullwing is a 50-seater restaurant that overlooks the test tracks that are part of the Mercedes-Benz World's facilities.
