Does anyone happen to know where the Brawn 2009 F1 cars are currently being kept?

No, I imagine they're in some kind of museum/display but I don't know where. Just wondering if anyone here does.

Most likely at a Mercedes GP facility.

Williams, Ferrari, etc., keep their old cars on display at their own facilities; some sell them to private collectors or businesses (eg. PF1 does F1 experience drives using ex-Jaguar F1 cars).

When I was at Brackley in February, one was in a corridor in the factory (Button's Aussie car) minus wheels and bits of body work.

Another had been done over to look like a Merc and was off to a display.

Why do you want to know?

probably in the Museum above the windtunnel at Brackley, where some of the other cars are.
When i went a few weeks after Abu Dhabi there was a dummy car in the design office, the other normally resides in the main reception area, but was out at a sponsers do, but the last Tyrrell was in there. in the museum area were several past hondas on display, along with their trophy display (minus all the 2009 trophies which were in the main reception.)
