Amazing museum if you love British cars. Spent 4+ hours going through the museum. Once. I felt like I missed a lot, but they were closing and I had to leave the next day. Bummer. They have hundreds on display and you can ever watch a restoration in progress. The volunteers are incredibly knowledgeable. I learned a lot of things I didn’t know.

Fantastic museum. Spent nearly 4 hours here so good value for money. Good range of classic cars and film/TV cars. Cafe on site; good range of refreshments. Staff & volunteers very friendly and knowledgeable. Suitable for all ages, highly recommend for a good day out.

Excellent museum but a queue to enter and rain outside. Moira the family guide was brilliant. Too much to see in a few hours with my 5 year old granddaughter. Could do with more signs or better still more friendly staff to guide us around. Food and drinks too expensive!

Very informative display and well laid out. Fascinating insights into the car industry history in the UK. Great collection of well displayed cars in great condition. Brought back a few memories. Only complaint is they didn't have examples of my first cars, 1959 Ford Prefect, 1967 Ford Mk2 Cortina or a Ford Mk3 Cortina (1976 would have been good). Simply massive and 5 hrs well spent.

We had the most amazing day at the British Motor Museum today. There was so much for the kids to do. As it is half term there were colouring and painting activities. My children are too big for them but there are cars for younger children that adults could push them around in. There are cars that can't be touched as they obviously don't want to get damaged but there are several clearly signed that you can touch. There are lots of interactive stations around the museum for the kids too. We enjoyed the quiz finding the fastest cars in each section. The highlight of our visit was the free family tour conducted by Jim. We met Jim on our way in and he told us about the half term activities as well as the family tour that was due to start in about half an hour's time. On the tour Jim was dressed up as an old fashioned bus driver which made him easy to spot. He was so enthusiastic about all the exhibits and asked the kids lots of questions so they were all involved. Jim let the kids sit in an Aston Martin that they weren't supposed to touch (so don't tell anyone 😜). After the tour my daughter wanted a photo with him which he was happy to pose for and answered more of our questions and told us more interesting facts about other cars in the museum.

After attending the MG 100th event at the museum last year we returned with a focus to take in the Main museum building and the Collection building that we failed to look around last time. We were amazed by the quantity of cars and fascinated by individual car history and found all the staff very friendly . We joined one of the free tours of the museum - our guide Joe was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about British motoring history that it made the visit. We were lucky to visit on the 2nd Tuesday of the month so had the added bonus of seeing the very popular local car gathering in the car park that included some of the Museums cars in action.

Had an amazing day here for my husbands birthday treat on the way home from a long weekend in Bristol. The displays are fabulous, lots of interactive things to do especially for children, staff are very welcoming and knowledgeable too…special mention to Clive for taking the time to chat to my husband and I. We didn’t eat while we were there but had a drink in the cafe, however the food being served looked delicious. Lovely little gift shop which was reasonably priced too ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Brilliant experience. There was a sacelextrix exhibition on, so the actual museum was really empty,which made our visit really good. There was plenty of room to walk around, see the cars. The Jaguar exhibition was also available to walk around without too many people. Also, I have a 52-year 420G that they don't have, which made me feel honoured to have something the museum didn't have. May be something to think of in the future if theu wanted it

We spent about 4 hours here. Excellent displays and well presented vehicles. You could easily spend a couple of days here. I didn't have time to read all the information. Seeing old cars brought back so many memories. Of particular note, the member of staff at the entrance was so welcoming, helpful and friendly and it git us off to a good start. We also enjoyed a snack lunch in the very busy cafe. The server obviously misunderstood my wife's Scottish accent as she didn't get the beans she ordered but she wasn't charged! All good. Well worth a visit.

A fantastic day at Gaydon. A vast number of cars to see in a spacious setting. Very interesting to see so many concept cars which never saw production. A shout out for the excellent volunteer staff particularly Anton. Regrettably the cafe was a bit of a let down with rather poor quality food and which was closed just when we needed a cup of tea! Next time we will take a picnic.
