Back on a sunny April evening, around 40 Members joined us to enjoy the sights, sounds and smells of some of our collection of over 350 motor cars. Museum on the Move is a Members only event that will take place annually. This year we put together a selection of 12 cars, from all eras and a variety of types - everything from a 1904 Wolseley 6hp veteran car to the raucous MG Metro 6R4 rally car prototype from 1983.
Amongst the cars were several that are motoring milestones, including the first Land Rover 'HUE 166' and the last ever Triumph Dolomite Sprint. There were some that are unique, such as the 1967 Rover P6BS mid-engined sports car and others that are newer additions to the collection, for example a recently donated TVR Grantura.
During the evening there was plenty of opportunity to chat to the talented Workshop,
Curatorial and Archive staff who look after our amazing collections. And, as the sun began to set and the last ride of grandeur in a chauffeur-driven 110 year old Austin landaulette or wind-in-the-hair run in an Austin Healey was done, everyone set off home with a smile on their face including one Member who'd travelled nearly 400 miles from Scotland just for the chance to experience seeing and riding in some of our collection!
