Visit to the Haynes motor museum today

[Wacky Racer]

Highly recommended (If you haven't been), millions of pounds worth of stunning cars, (and several motorbikes), I was there over four hours and that wasn't enough to see everything. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

Yeah I went a couple of years ago and enjoyed it. Some lovely stuff there.

+1. Great day out.

We went a few years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. Do they still drive a couple of cars out at lunch time and let you have a good look around them, sit in them etc.?

[Triumph Man]

I prefer it to Beaulieu, and the first sunday of the month breakfast clubs are quite good

I love it there...although I was disappointed to discover I had more Haynes Manuals than they did

If they did, I must have missed them, although I did notice from inside, one driving around the car park.

Always wanted to go, never yet managed to. Did you get the museum guide? Apparently its quite similar to the building and its contents, but differs in a few subtle but annoying important parts...

I assume they way out is the same way as the way but in reverse?

Nice caff, too.

Yep. Apparently getting out is the reverse process of getting in

Yes, it's well worth a visit.

Just be aware of the wildlife! A pheasant chick took a chunk out of my undertray on the A30 in 2023.

There is a breakfast club every month- next one is this Sunday - width loads a great stuff in display in the car park too.

Very nice cafe. We go there on driving courses every now and then.

Ex sister in law works there (or did). Used to get free entry when she was working. One of the benefits of my ex!

Not as local to me now sadly.

Went a few months ago, really enjoyed it also as a bones you can upgrade your ticket to a pass that allows you to go back anytime unlimited in a year.
