Hi,

The biggest change since we last visited Gaydon motor museum, is the creation of a new building close to the existing structure, to house both the British Motor Museum's reserve collection, and also cars from JDHT's own collection (some of which can be found in the main museum).

Jaguars old and new are on display, obviously the early models will be of most interest to regular OCCers, so here are a few snapshots from last Saturday's visit....

Thanks for posting all photos Rick.
The JDHT vastly increased the size of their collection when they acquired the collection of James Hull. An amazing private collection not just of SSs and Jaguars but a substantial number of other British makes too.

A couple of years had passed since the last visit to JDHT at Gaydon. I found myself on site again a few months ago, this time for the 60th anniversary of the Mini bash. It would have been rude not to pop into the wonderful JDHT building and have another look around. There've been a few changes and move-arounds, so a few photos from this visit:













While in the workshop area ....
