I called in on friday for the first time in a decade. Very few visitors- 4 or 5 only - and a very different experience to the one I remembered . Lots of military vehicles which are fine if you like that sort of thing but interest me not a jot- see one tank and you've seen 'em all. Lots more contemporary GP cars right up to 2008 Red Bull whose aerodynamics are incredibly sophisticated - and terribly ugly compared to gems like the early 90s McLaren and Williams F1 cars (which are present in number ) , let alone gems like the Lotus 49 and BRM P153 .
There is a 'but'- the layout was unimaginative and sloppy with cabinets of material wrongly labelled or not identified at all . And the text on the display boards next to the cars was just woeful- terribly written and peppered with errors both factual (since when did JYS drive a BRM in 1970?) and in the text itself- Grand Prix's anybody ?
I am sure it is a work in progress and it is still a fantastic display but a bit more attention to detail would really improve things . Unless I 'm just a pedantic old git ....
