About the Museum
The Heritage Motor Centre motor museum in Warwickshire is home to the world’s largest collection of historic British cars. Visitors can uncover the story of the British motor industry with our fun and interactive exhibitions. There are outdoor activities including a children’s play area, picnic site and Land Rover Experience. Eat lunch in our excellent Junction Twelve Café and, when you’ve enjoyed the museum, stop by our museum gift shop and pick up some motoring memorabilia.
Outdoor Activities
Take to the slopes and ride as a passenger on the Land Rover Experience through Gaydon’s steep and twisting multi terrain experience track. The purpose built track shows off the extreme capabilities of Land Rover vehicles and offers a thrilling ride for all.
Let your children experience the fun of driving on our Miniature Roadway track. Children can navigate a roundabout and road junctions in our electric go-karts. There’s even room for Mum or Dad on the back! The Miniature Roadway is for ages 3-7 only.*
Tickets for outdoor activities can be purchased on the day from the museum paydesk.
*The Miniature Roadway is weather permitting.
