The National Motor Museum, founded in 1965, is a international centre for the collection, research, preservation, education and display of Australian road transport history. You don't have to be an enthusiast to appreciate Australia's biggest motoring collection of 300 vintage, veteran, post war, classic and modern cars, commercial vehicles and 100 motorcycles.

Walk through the contemporary pavilions and constantly changing exhibition spaces, including the Holden Pavilion of Australian Motoring, and encounter the stories, people and vehicles that have shaped our motoring history through the decades. See famous and little known vehicles such as the 1899 steam-powered Shearer, the legendary Leyland Brothers Land Rover and Tom Kruse's 1934 Leyland Badger, to name just a few. Appreciate how motor vehicles helped to open up our country, linking some of the most isolated communities in the world. Be amazed by the Talbot, the first car to cross the continent in 1908. Enjoy fond memories of cherished family motoring holidays and learning to drive, and why not try a 1950s driving test.

The Museum also hosts various special events, including the finish of the world-renowned Bay to Birdwood.
