A new, comprehensive guide to motoring and transport museums offering a fresh conversation on their role and the portrayal of our motoring history. Written by a long-established motoring writer with wide experience of driving and the fettling of old cars all over the world. This new motor museum companion includes: British motoring and transport museums guide via descriptions and photographs. 90 British museums described. Comprehensive world motor museum listing: over 350 global museums cited. Out-takes from visits to selected overseas museums. Provides a glossary of old-car/motorcycle terms and types to assist the museum visitor and old car enthusiast. Discusses the museum culture and its new age. Visits to many museums by the author were self-funded: he paid his own way.

AUTHOR: Lance Cole has been a motoring and aviation writer for over thirty years. He has written features and regular columns for leading magazines and newspapers all over the world and is the author of more than fifteen books. He wrote Erik Carlsson's obituary for the Daily Telegraph and has written three books on Saab and began this book, his museum odyssey, at the Saab Museum in Trollhattan. Lance initially trained in car design and motoring journalism. He has also worked as a foreign correspondent, PR, campaigner, researcher, and broadcaster. Lance has repaired and driven classic cars as far afield as East Africa, the Australian outback, and America; he has also undertaken new model development driving for car makers. Old vehicles, old aircraft, artefacts, memorabilia, books and museums are passions, alongside dogs, red wine, Islay single malt, Sea Sick Steve, Breton folk music, the Bachs, and Beethoven. He is married to Anna from Western Australia and currently lives in Wiltshire, England.
