Celebrate Father’s Day at the British Motor Museum

If you’re looking for a unique gift or special day out to celebrate Father’s Day, the British Motor Museum has lots to offer to make it a truly memorable day! Those visiting the Museum on Sunday 15 June, can admire over 400 commercial vehicles at the ‘Classic and Vintage Commercial Show’. The show, which takes place on 14 & 15 June, offers visitors an opportunity to reminisce about days gone by amongst giants of the motoring world.

The Museum also has plenty of gift ideas to spoil Fathers. A Heritage Certificate is the perfect gift for an owner of a cherished classic car. The Certificates are the official ‘Certified Copy of a Factory Record’ for a classic car showing the vehicle’s specification as it left the production line. For more information visit britishmotormuseum.co.uk/archive/heritage-certificates

 

Alternatively, adopt a car from the Museum collections! From the Albion A1 8hp dog cart to the Wolseley 2200 (last of line), cars that form part of the Museum’s permanent collections are available to adopt. Adoptions cost between £25 & £100 and adopters get a digital adoption certificate as well as their name added to the car’s listing in the Online Collections.
