It's now been nearly a year since we started our 'Adopt a Vehicle' scheme, and we sincerely thank all of our donors for supporting the museum πŸ‘

There's so many cars to choose from, so why not adopt a car for yourself or a loved one? From just Β£20, get a digital adoption certificate via email and display yours or their name on the Online Collections record under the vehicle. You'll be playing a vital role in preserving our collection for the next generation to discover because every adoption supports our charity.
