   Hi Ryan,

   Are these the only pics on the internet of Drive World?

   We are heading over to the South Island (from Wellington) for a road trip as far south as Dunedin to see family. A stop-over planned in Christchurch I was excitely telling my wife about how we should take the kids to QE2 park – there’s heaps of cool vehicles and stuff you can drive, and awesome pools and hydroslides, etc (childhood memories)

   So, do you think I can find any pics? The wife was starting to think I’d made the whole thing up, when I stumbled upon these.

   Sad to see its all gone. It was a magical place. RIP

   PS. We love Berlin. Visited there at least 3 times when we lived in London.

      I didn’t know the park was gone now. That’s a real pity. It was an amazing place to go as a little kid.

         I’m Glad you Enjoyed Driveworld it was a Magical place for kids, I used to Own Driveworld , Unfortunately I had to close it in 2000 due to the leases not being able to be Renewed by the City Council , Awsome Photos , There is a Driveworld Memories Page on Facebook with photos too. ?

            That seems like it would have been a fun business to operate.
