The Gosford Car Museum Revisted
I first visited the Gosford Car Museum a bit over two years ago. Back in 2016, the Museum had recently opened. Since it operates as a hybrid dealership/museum, the collection slowly turns over. This means a return visit two years later provides a lot of new cars to see.
I would estimate that at least 50% of the collection has turned over since that visit. It is still a very impressive museum, although the collection is now 10-15% smaller. In addition, there are probably fewer jaw dropping cars than before. For example last time in the Mercedes Benz section there was a Gullwing, a 300Sc, 300SE Coupe etc. This time there were a couple of Pagoda SL and a LHD W111 Coupe.
Some of the highlights for me:
- An Aircraft engine car with a 10L De Havilland engine.
- A Chrysler 300F
- A Rolls Royce 20HP with a sleek tourer body
- The Bentley 4.25 liter
The Gosford Car Museum is a great half day trip. I got lucky today as the museum was having a free entry day. I went in my brothers E63 650i, which really came into its own on the old Pacific Highway. If only there were fewer packs of cyclists that ride 2-3 abreast.
I will probably go again in a couple of years to see if the collection has changed further.
