That seems like overkill, with Gaydon only a few miles away.

And I forgot Bourton on the Water!
Three motor museums in about 25 mile radius?

If they can fill 'em up, why not? Gaydon is all British iirc, Bourton is mainly British, so if the new one could offer a broader variety of exhibits based on country of origin, then it should complement rather than rival the others I'd have thought..?
