Went for an unplanned wander around the Science Museum in London on Friday, took some photos of the motoring exhibits on my phone, aren't of the greatest quality i'm afraid.



My favourite exhibits, the sliced in half Mini







Austin Seven buried among exhibits behind glass



JET1 Rover



Pre-1917 (1914 model I think) Ford Model T



The first car in the UK, a Daimler



Stack of 1950's/60's cars



1898 De Dion Bouton Tricycle



Doesn't have wheels but i've been reading about record breakers pre-WW2 quite a lot recently - the Miss England speedboat



Two bubble cars and a 1950s Scooter



Solar powered car



Early Diesel powered Foden lorry



1914 Daimler workshop lorry for the British Army model



B type Edwardian London bus model



1936 Leyland limousine fire engine model



1926 Daimler tanker lorry

interesting pics Rob, thanks. The front mudguard on the Dennis lorry looks a bit wonky doesn't it!
