Fantastic visitor experience - It is just a brilliant museum, if you are in any way into cars . So many specialist ones , and the ones all or most of us would know , likely from ownership. All totally immaculately presented , with narrative descriptions and history. It takes a fair while to look around there is so much on display. An excellent , and in my opinion , fairly priced cafe there as well , with quality food. Very friendly and professional staff. I would highly recommend this and well, well worth a visit. ☺️

This is a must do for car enthusiasts! - This is a must do for any car enthusiast. I went with my partner and elderly dad. We moved steadily and spent approximately 2.5 hours getting through the museum. It was a very hot day and the buildings could have had better circulation/fans, we likely would have slowed our pace. Overall, it was a memorable visit, and I can't recommend it enough!

Highly recommended for families - Absolutely love this place - been bringing my boy here since he was a baby and he loves it too. The little cars to push kids round in, the interactive displays, mini motorist Mondays and the weekly events are highlights but everything about this once is brilliant. Big shout to the staff here also all of whom are lovely. Make sure you gift aid the tickets and you get a whole year!

Visit on mid summer's day - My wife and I went on 21st June, we last visited over 10 years ago. My wife humours me by being dragged along to car themed events, but even she admitted she enjoyed it. From my perspective it was good to see the cars which were common in my youth growing up in the 1960's and 1970's. I liked seeing the first and last off the lines, and the dream cars that competed and won at Le Mans in period. They are beautifully presented in air conditioned halls, which was very welcome given the near 30 degrees outside. We were both impressed by the quality and reasonable price of the food in the cafe. What made the visit more than anything though was the museum guides. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate.

Birthday Treat - First time visit as a birthday treat and we pre booked tickets to take advantage of the slight price reduction. I have to say the museum made up of two separate exhibition halls is amazing. A superb collection of every past British car you could ever imagine in fantastic condition. Many of which made me realise how old I am as well! There’s a separate collection of everything Jaguar including concept and prototype vehicles if you’re a big fan. On the day we visited there was a commercial vehicle show as well. There were a few outdoor stalls for refreshments which we took advantage of to have a bacon butty. We’ll run and organised with loads of free parking. Highly recommend.

Great day and a couple of observations - Thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of the museum, really well done. Couple of things occurred to me. Bentley didn’t get enough exposure and given the iconic status of the Range Rover I think it needs a bit more thought. A great day out, thank you.

Great range of cars, helpful staff, easy parking - Positive morning at Museum. Easy parking and close to motorway junction so access was quick. Entry fee is a little high for what you get especially as “concessions” only get a couple of quid off but you can return using your ticket within a year which could offset the initial cost. Information boards are excellent for each vehicle and great history around the place - we didn’t use them but the push along kids cars for toddlers are very cool! We actually preferred the “collections” building that had a working workshop ypu could view and was wall to wall with classics… Café is a bit basic and feels a little dated but we sat outside on the benches with a coffee to e hot the weather. Generally a very positive way to spend a few hours.

It's really the British Leyland Boomer Museum - Nice collection, albeit a bit underwhelming. They're trying to cram a lot of cars into a small space, I think less would do more. There is a huge collection of British Leyland group cars. But the actual titans of the British industry, Ford and Vauxhall are virtually absent. It might be a generational thing, but there are endless beautiful 50s and 60s jags etc. They're all lovely but a bit boring to those of us raised in the times when Sierra's and Fiesta XR2 were the kings of cool and our 'classics'. The museum itself was spotless, easy parking and to get around.
