"Coventry Transport Museum really captivates by putting vehicles in a dramatic local context. From early coachbuilding via the Blitz to the industry collapse and locally built ThrustSSC, the themed displays are inspired. Special exhibitions, talks and car club displays continually enhance any visit."

Just to say many thanks for our trips last week on Thurs and Fri. It was excellently organized from your end and the staff were very helpful and friendly. The children really enjoyed the activities and even though they are ks1, the awe and wonder lasted the whole day!

On behalf of the group of Old Motorcycle riders who visited your splendid Transport Museum on 6th July, my sincere thanks to you for all your help, and provision of Secure Parking for the duration of our stay.
I think that several of our riders will be back for a second helping of the sights within! The changes since my last visit some years ago are, I think, all improvements. You have a remarkable collection of desirable property, excellently presented!
Thanks again, and my best wishes to you.

Just to say thank you so much for reserving the car park spaces at the back of the museum today, unfortunately not as many of us could visit Coventry Transport Museum as hoped for various reasons but those of us who did had a great day and were very impressed with the exhibits, staff (very friendly and welcoming), coffee shop and museum on a whole. We will highly recommend others to visit. We will be putting an article in the A30/A35 sidelights/spotlight magazine about our visit.
Thank you once again to you and every one at the Museum for a really enjoyable day.

"In a past edition of CCW you mentioned the Museum of British Road Transport in Coventry as worth a visit. I therefore thought you might be interested in a little feedback. On a recent trip to Solihull to collect a pair of wind deflectors for my Saab 900 Classic, my wife and I decided to use the rest of the day to visit Coventry's Museum. We are so pleased that we did, as we had a wonerdful few hours looking at the exhibitis and reminiscing about days gone-by.
On show are some superb classic cars, motorcycles, bicycles and much, much more. One thoughful aspect of the museum is that there are plenty of places where you can sit down and rest your legs and the whole place is wheelchair friendly. The staff I spoke to was very polite, knowledgeable and obviously enjoyed his job - a real happy chappy. On noticing my Saab Enthusiasts' Club badge, he invited me for a closer look at the new Spyker sports car, made by the Dutch company that has taken over Saab. What a beautiful piece of engineering it is.
We will definitely be returnng for another visit and with exhibits frequently changing, there will always be something different to see. Oh, I nearly forgot, it gets better - admission is FREE! I say well done to Coventry and thanks to CCW for this and other useful tips."

"Last week I took a visitor from London to the transport museum. We were both very impressed with the displays and were especially impressed with the optional tour that provided a useful overview of the museum's contents. We were exceedingly pleased with your tour guide who presented herself very well and was very informative.
Thank you for providing a first class outing that also informed my London colleague that Coventry really is a very interesting place to visit. Well Done!"

"Many thanks for your help regarding our Drive-it-Day outing to Coventry Museum of Transport. All the staff were helpful and friendly, and the parking and entry went without a hitch. Those members who had not visited before were impressed, and those of us who had, noticed many changes and improvements which made the visit interesting. Please convey our thanks to the staff from the Chilterns group of the TR Register"
