    This is an extremely impressive destination for both car enthusiasts and families alike. Not only does the museum cater to the automotive aficionados, but it also offers an abundance of family-friendly activities for young children, exceeding my initial expectations. The level of customer service provided was exemplary, displaying warmth and hospitality.

    Great variety of motors. Able to see most from all angles and close up - not roped off which is brill. Perhaps a little pricey although your ticket gets you free entry for a year. You can order tickets online before the day in order to save 10%, which I foolishly forgot to do. You’ll be able to spend a good few hours here if you’re into motors, so a good day out for the family. There are some interactive elements, a LEGO area, plus an outdoor play area. The gift shop has a wide range of products. I purchased the diary, a 7 in 1 pen, a cap, and some sweet treats - pleased with all purchases. I definitely recommend this museum.

    Fantastic museum for the self asset petrol head car or motorcycle, young and old. And value for money considering you get a free 12mths membership with your purchase 😉.and proof using your receipt or address at the kiosk.

    Excellent museum even if you aren’t interested in cars or motorcycles. (It’s the largest in the UK.) There are lots of cars from different periods and plenty of interesting stories and vignettes. Staff are friendly and happy to chat about interesting tidbits re the displays. Do book in advance for karting though as the slots fill up quickly. (Minimum age 8.)
