Top Gear Exhibition at Beaulieu - Page 2

Should be there quite a time I think. Bovington Tank Museum is just down the road if your are interested too - some great bits of kit there too. Look out for Battle Day usually in July.

Apologies in advance if I am cutting in on talk I wouldn't normally get involved in but as someone who has been very closely involved with the discussions with the BBC about this project I can categorically state that Beaulieu has not bought these cars. However, it is true that we are going to put in a display concenring the cars and some other elements as well. If you want to keep track of details of what is happening when go to http://www.beaulieu.co.uk/templates/...ObjectId=59808

We hope you can come and see it when it opens and if so do let us know what you think; I'll be checking back on the forum to pick up any comments.

I always thought Beaulieu was in Surrey for some reason. Dorset's not a million miles from me, might wander up there in the summer for a nose around...

Something a U.S. fan might like to be aware of if they're planning a trip to the U.K this summer? images/smilies/biggrin.gif

This is your chance to win tickets for this event for Father's Day, so you can either take your dad or have your offspring take you!

That could be a trick question.

Update on the Top Gear site.

To be honest, it’s really rather good – your only chance to get up close to the ambitious but rubbish inventions that Jeremy, Richard and James that have either sunk, crashed or exploded.

The display doesn’t officially open until June 19,

The museum chaps plan to rotate the cars on display to cram everything in, so you can expect to see the likes of TG police cars, amphibious cars, stretch limos, double deckers and so on.
