Donated Cars
Donated Cars
We are extremely grateful to a number of people who have decided that Great British Car Journey should be the final resting place for their car and donated it to the museum. We will be erecting a board in reception this year to record all donations and aim to keep all donated cars in full working order even if they cannot be on permanent display. We also undertake that donated cars will never be offered for sale unless as part of a sale of the whole collection.
The Great British Car Journey is about stories and donated cars really enhance the story for everyone
