I find myself with a few spare hours to kill coming week in the Coventry/Harwich area.
Of course I've put the Jaguar Heritage museum on my shortlist.

Are there any other recommended automotive-related sights in the vicinty?

Coventry transport museum is well worth a look around.

Gaydon's not far away, either.

Bruntingthorpe, but you'll need permission to get in.

See if there is anything worth watching (ie testing) at Mallory or Rockingham?
Not automotive, but Duxford is also worth a visit.

I assume you meant Coventry/Warwick area. Harwich is somewhat distant from Coventry.

Just to add one to the list - Motorcycle museum near the NEC is freshly (ish) rebuilt after a fire and is well worth a visit.

Well - the route is passing by Coventry towards ultimately Harwich

Thank you all for the recommendations
