	OK, maybe not a whole day out in itself but this is a little gem of a motor museum tucked away between St Davids and Haverfordwest. For three & a half quid you get a packed display hall and there's even a coffeeshop/cafe area to leave the family while you go perusing. www.pembsmotormuseum.co.uk/index.htm I went a couple of weeks ago and this is what I found... outside to greet you on arrival is some neat old tat display stuff includes cutaway engines (this is a Humber lump) and other such stuff. even a complete cutaway Austin 1800 the owner campaigns Ford rallly cars I think... another Escort shell is hiding behind the Cortina convertible vintage cars tucked in with tat and pedal cars and old school "stuff" All museums should have a "stuff pile" name that brand? Real patina, not fake rust. just so cool with cool stuff rammed in with yet more cool stuff more Ford rally stuff and bikes and stuff and projects and stuff and toy cars and a ton of good stuff parked up outside in a compound... I'm guessing someone here likes Morris Minors... Akku rating ***** 5/5 MVP. like visiting some dude's shed. kinda how my place would be if I could get away with it.

	Cool beans ;D I've only just today booked a converted barn in Little Haven (half way between St David's & Haverfordwest) for 2 weeks in September. Been going to Pembrokeshire for 30+ years and thought I knew it all.....obviously not. The museum looks AWESOME and I'll certainly be paying a visit. £3.50 - true bargain for all that eye candy. Many thanks for sharing.....even more excited about my holiday now

	Christ, this thing's almost on my door step, and I never knew about it. I feel a family day out might be looming! As for the Minors, a few years back I heard of a bloke in Whitland (not too far away) who had in excess of 40 Minors parked on his land, and was told to move them. They may have ended up in the museum?

We used to go to Whitland camping in our Type 25 (the fishers arms IIRC ? ) and there was a garage there with a good 20 or so classics parked around the place ... mk2 jags , Minors , A30's , Capris , beetles , rollers , 2002's , etc and a few 1930's cars too . that was around four years ago i think , maybe still there ?
	You've been telling me you were a genius since you were seventeen ... in all the time I've known you I still don't know what you mean !
