Great British Car Journey Museum
An interactive journey celebrating an era when British entrepreneurs and engineers were at the forefront of a transport revolution.
Herbert Austin and William Morris were the leaders of that revolution. They put the working population behind the wheel and gave us the freedom of mobility which we now take for granted.
This is the story of British industry which, in its heyday, was a worldwide force with products that were exported to all corners of the world. The story of a bygone era when, for half a century, British cars "ruled the road".
The journey starts in the early 1920s when the working family could only dream of owning a car and ends in the early years of the new millennium when most of Britain's great car factories fall silent.
The museum features over 140 British Classic cars, from the legendary Austin 7 to the magnificent Mini.
Many of these cars are now incredibly rare, and the museum searched for several years for superb examples to display.
