Apologies in advance if this has already been covered, but I couldn't find it in the search function. Is there a museum at the Gaydon Factory, and is it open to general admission? Reason I ask is that I'll be travelling that way on the Monday following Goodwood (Driving over from Ireland).

Any tips/help/answers greatly appreciated. And for any other good places to visit also.

Thanks in advance

Nope. Sorry. You are better off going to newport Pagnell and seeing if you can see anything at works service. Mind you, last time I was there the Gaydon car museum had the prototype V8 Vantage in there

they have a mini museum of sorts - by that I mean some a number of rare and old cars through the office area at the factory that are worth a look. I spent a while looking over each one on my tour.

Yes but its not open to the public. You have to be invited to attend. How? Either buy a car, join the AMOC or sponsor their race team in some aspect.
