If you're a car enthusiast, a visit to the Nelson Classic Car Museum is an absolute must! With over 150 cars from more than 100 years of motoring, this museum is a car lover's dream come true. From vintage 1908 Renault AX to the classic cars of the 1950s including Vauxhalls, Triumphs, and Cadillacs, to the beautiful masterpieces of Jaguar and Ferrari, this museum has an incredible collection of iconic cars that will leave you in awe.

The museum is impeccably maintained, and each car is in immaculate condition. Whether you want to relive the memories of your grandad's car, your first car, or simply admire some of the world's most iconic cars, the Nelson Classic Car Museum is the perfect place to do so. The annual pass is great value for money and is perfect for those who can't get enough of the museum's collection.

Aside from the fantastic collection of cars, the museum also has a stylish board room available for hire, making it an ideal location for business meetings, focus groups, and even weddings. The Little Engine Eatery on site is perfect for grabbing a snack or a coffee while you take in the museum's many exhibits.

The museum store is also worth a visit, showcasing a great selection of unique gifts and collectables that you won't find anywhere else.

Overall, the Nelson Classic Car Museum is a must-visit attraction for car enthusiasts and those who appreciate immaculately maintained, iconic cars. The attention to detail in the museum is impressive, and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Make sure you add this museum to your itinerary when visiting Nelson - you won't be...

Unfortunately my partner and I had a humiliating experience right from the start of walking into the wow museum, we were on our way to Little engine cafe which we adore so much, and were greeted by a very hostile manager. Before I explain the situation I would like to add that anyone has a right to politely ask about masks, exemptions and vaccine passes but noone has a right to treat others with rude and humiliating behaviour. We were yelled at from the counter, with others between us, in a rude tone about our masks, we politely replied we have mask exemptions and I emphasised a kind smile as I could tell she wasn't in a great mood, she then proceeded to yell at us more saying in a much more dark tone that we should have our exemptions out for her to see without her asking. A few elderly people heard her carry on and mentioned to us that it was extreamly rude and non professional of her. Unfortunately little engine lost us as customers today due to the humiliation we felt. Why are we all being treated like this if we are all doing the right...

I loved my time at Nelson Classic Car Museum today! What a brilliant find and what a valuable asset it is for Nelson! I loved the overall layout and displays and I enjoyed reading the labels too, all of which were very informative and interesting. My favourite cars on display were the 1951 Super Eight Buick, the 1971 Volvo, the 1959 Cadillac Coup de Ville and the 1959 FC Special Holden. The Museum makes you feel as though you are on a film set and the whole experience makes you feel happy and nostalgic. When I was looking at some of the oldest cars, I thought of Downton Abbey, while the cars from the '50s and '60s reminded me of moments straight from Mad Men. All of the cars are so clean and well looked after and I appreciated the opportunity to look inside many of them. I will definitely come back here and thank you so much for this...

The Nelson Classic Car Museum is an absolute gem and a must-visit for anyone traveling through Nelson. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a sense of history, passion, and pride. The collection is breathtaking — beautifully restored classic cars from every era, each with its own story. You don’t need to be a car enthusiast to appreciate it; the presentation, attention to detail, and atmosphere make it enjoyable for everyone.

A great experience. Great variety of cars, informative signs and many unique cars. Most of them are also not enclosed, so we were able to walk around them and look inside, which made the experience even better. We spent two hours thoroughly looking at each car, and enjoyed every second. The woman working at the counter was lovely and we chatted for a while. Would definitely recommend!
