A very interesting place to see how life used to be like when you're driving around back in the olden days. Sadly the simulator wasn't working so I couldn't go on it on my visit. I paid the non resident price but if you're a CV resident you literally pay peanuts so it's well worth it! Good thing though is my tickets are valid for a whole year so it's worth it's price if visiting again.

So many beautiful cars from before 1900 to today, including those with speed = 763 mph, autonomous vehicles, beautiful Jaguars, electric cars and racing cars. And bicycles too, caravans, police cars, ambulances and fire engines. And military vehicles too. And tractors and trucks. And thousands of toy cars and planes. It's one of its kind in the UK, very unique and impressive. In 1913 there were 20 car makers in Coventry. It was the centre of car manufacturing in UK. Like Detroit in the US. Thank you for collecting and preserving all those beautiful cars. Most of them are still in immaculate conditions. You ticket (PS16.50) is valid for one year.

A definite 5 out of 5! We had planned to spend (what we thought were a very generous) 2 1/2 hours at this museum, and ended up using 3 hours, because there was just so much to see! I'm not a car fan as such, but do like to see car exhibitions once in a wheel. But this place took my breath away! We felt it just went on forever and ever. One exhibition hall after another, seemingly endless and never getting boring for a minute! Beside the actual vehicles (of all kinds!) on display, we also loved how it told the history of Coventry in a fascinating and immersive way. I can recommend this museum to everyone, whether interested in cars or not, because it offers so much more!

Not a bad way to spend a hour. Museum larger than expected and love the interactive components. The blitz reenactment was a little blah, but the amount of cars was fabulous. Love learning Coventry motor history. Seeinv the Jaguars was a blast.

Very informative and layed-out very nicely. Some very impressive cars and bikes. Having a quick look at most of the museum pieces it took us 1.5-2 hours to see everything. Tickets cost PS15.50 each on the door for adults, these tickets last for 1 year.
