    An absolute gem of a place! A great way to spend the day learning about motoring history! The staff were amazing! I was very well looked after by the ladies following a minor medical emergency. Can’t thank you all enough. All in all, a fantastic day out at this wonderful museum!

    Absolutely must stop place to visit. Packed with cars and other exhibits. Every turn you see something that blows you away if you are a car lover. I never thought I would get close to a Ferrari 250 GTO. Exotic cars alongside every day cars but all superbly displayed. Special mention to the lights as they make every photo a brilliant shot.

    A modern museum with lots of great cars to view. Ancient and modern. A small motorcycle exhibit. Plenty of parking and a nice cafe. Tickets last a year so you can visit multiple times should you wish. Very friendly and knowledgeable volunteer staff.

    We spent a really enjoyable few hours here. The staff were welcoming and very accommodating. We borrowed a wheelchair for this as I was struggling and they were kind and understanding; but I was impressed with the amount of bench’s throughout the museum, for anyone who struggles with mobility there was plenty of places to take a break. The displays were excellent with plenty of information boards. We also went to see the outside display where the cats were driven round; again the staff were great and interacted with us. We had a snack in the cafe and it was nice; plenty of seats and freshly made food. There was lots of parking and although it was a very hot day, the museum was lovely and cool. I highly recommend this for a pleasant day out well that’s if you are like us and love cars!!
