    Excellent display. Very informative. Love that we were able to take photos and our son was able to ring the bell on the old fire truck.

    An absolute gem of a place holding so much history - I thoroughly enjoyed the meander through the 3 sections (much bigger than I expected) as well as the bonus of spotting a separate open day out the back with cars from all over the region coming together - was a brilliant way to spend a Sunday. The guys were so helpful and friendly too - thanks all 😊

    If visiting York, this should be on your list to do. Located in the centre of town. Allow approx. 1hr to enjoy and appreciate the advancement of the car.

  • 5/5 Gavin T. 10 months ago on Google
    We had a great visit today. So much history and some great motoring examples including one offs and cars I haven’t seen before. The displays are set out nice to easily walk around the cars and look in and round them. Cars, bikes, motor bikes, toys and educational cut aways. The history from Peter Briggs and John Harwood who set up the museum in the early 70s is very interesting. Highly recommend to anyone visit York

    Despite the small limited number of cars and bikes this place have an amazingly unique display. Was a pleasant surprised thought I would have enjoyed a more farming related connection considering York's history.

  • 4/5 Carmel R. 1 year ago on Google
    An unexpected gem in a small township like York. Well-presented vehicles and other memorabilia, including vehicles on loan from the WA Museum and the Crocodile Dundee car. Good interpretation materials too to explain the vehicles and their history.

    Great museum to visit. Nice day to get away from Perth. Not a long trip. Lady at front desk of museum greeted me with a smile. She & the other volunteers were a wealth of knowledge. If you want an outing York is a great place to go. The museum's cars the history behind its founder, is worth listening to. I had a great time there.

  • 5/5 Doug M. 1 year ago on Google
    This wonderful collection of historic motor vehicles is really worth a visit. There are many absolute gems in the Briggs collection, from the diminutive Messerschmitt KR200 to the monstrous 1968 Cadillac Eldorado. The museum itself is open, airy, clean and well laid out. Impressive!
