Please contact us to discuss and make a time to visit.
We try to manage the numbers attending to avoid overcrowding.
Guided tours are not available to individuals or for groups of less than 10 people.
The Fox Collection Tours will present some of the more interesting cars of the collection with a brief overview of the restoration processes undertaken by the workshop. The guided tours will vary dependent on the guide conducting the tour. Once the tour concludes visitors will be able to view the remainder of exhibited cars where practical.
A small amount of walking is required to view the exhibited vehicles. The cars are housed in a 2-storey building. Therefore visitors will be required to negotiate stairs (24 steps) to view the remainder of the vehicles on the first floor.
Due to the ongoing maintenance program of vehicles there may be times when some cars of particular interest are not exhibited.

Announcement for Car Clubs
To meet the many requests for open hours to be more friendly to working people we have conducted Twilight Openings in February and March.
We are now replacing those Twilight Openings with Saturday morning openings. Access through peak hour traffic was a problem for many people. Saturday morning openings will make access easier. To make it easier for clubs, we have parking for approximately 40 vehicles.
Therefore we welcome all motoring clubs to make an outing on a Saturday with the Fox Classic Car Collection as a destination. To avoid congestion and ensure there will be plenty of room for your club to park, please contact us with at least 4 weeks notice. We can then try and balance when different clubs visit. Allow at least 1 hour for your visit.
Our security gate will be closed 15 minute prior to closure. All vehicles will need to be removed after your visit concludes.
