Aston Martin Heritage Centre.
Discussion
We had a great drive out to the Aston Martin Heritage Centre on Sunday with a procession of 19 cars leaving from Weybridge Surrey to the Oxfordshire venue.
It was a lovely day, fresh but bright and sunny with some decent roads to convoy on. All arrived safe and sound and virtually filled the car park. Museum was usually closed on a weekend but we had a private viewing courtesy of HWM in Walton.
Beautiful, small museum with a handful of cars from the earliest known existing AM to a new Vanquish, plus hundreds of Tooling and racing souvenir exhibits
and of course the archives......
With light refreshments available for all thanks to the HWM hospitality, particularly Leanne and Alistair, a good time was had by all.
A thoroughly recommended way to spend a couple of hours seeing Aston's Roots.

Why is it closed during the weekend? Is it not a public museum?
Presumably they assume most Aston Martin drivers are retired. Maybe they're right but that's not the impression I get on PH.
Still, I suppose we're all out driving at some breakneck speed and enjoying life instead of sauntering round some cold dead exhibits. (Ducks for cover)
