What about the Southward Car Museum?

The last weekend I went to Southward Car Museum in Kapiti Coast (New Zealand). It's a big museum where you can find several classic cars. 
Sr. Len Southward and his wife Lady Vera Southward began collecting car in 1956. Some cars were bought and others donated, such as the Tata Nano Car.


The ticket costs $17 for each adult and children (5-15 yrs) $3. I think it's worth, because they have a great collection and you can take some good pictures.

There, you can see a lot of old and young cars. The museum has over 400 vehicles, and various other exhibits including aircrafts, bicycles, motorcycles.

Among the most popular are Cadillac, Corvette, 1972 Fiat 500, Cooper MK5, although the best car in my opinion is the Shelby Mustang! :)




Perhaps, you' ll need to plan the visit, because it's a little bit complicated. I went with my car (I live in Hutt Valley, Wellington), but if you don't have a car, you need to be patient and use the train and bus. The place is far from the Paraparaumu Station and you will need to take the bus Paraparaumu Beach.

Despite of distance, I recommend you to visit the Southward Museum, because you will have a excellent experience.
