Excellent museum for car and bike lovers. You'll need a minimum of 4 hours to enjoy everything and you need to make time for the "Bluebird" water and land speed area. The first time we visited we spent a whole day from 10am till close at 5:30pm there is so much to take in. The cafe food is quality too. Every time we go (once/twice a year there is always something new to see. An excellent day out and great value for money. Highly recommended.

Great collection and fantastic information on each piece. Go if you love motors, or take someone who loves motors, you score some serious brownie points. The car park outside is free (which is unlike other museums I've been to). You may think it's quite small (and it isn't the biggest museum) but it's very densely packed with lots of information on each and every vehicle on display). It took about 2 hours to slowly look at all the displays, but I could have taken double that ;-)

Fantastic place. So much to see, you will need to allow plenty of time to take it all in. Very clean and well presented. Good parking and it is free. On site cafe with a good menu, tasty fayre and friendly staff. After a long drive my wife and I started with a drink and cake before our tour of the museum. Later on before we left for our return journey, we had a more substantial meal. Would definately recommend a visit.

A very good reminder of past motoring from bicycles, motorcycles, cars, road signs, model cars (which ones did you play with?). They even had a tricycle that I had when I was young. Lots of people sharing their own memories. There's also the Bluebird Exhibition on the same site.

A wealth of cars, bikes and memorabilia crammed into a relatively small area. Some interesting exhibits, some are like show cars but most are just tidy examples of a used car. Overall it's well worth a visit and there is a lot of stuff in there but just difficult to appreciate is due to how crammed it is. Fair play for enthusiastic people taking the time and effort to do things like this.
