London Motor Museum
Transport museum in Hillingdon, England
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The London Motor Museum had more than 160 exhibits; they included classic cars from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s, and a selection of famous cars – including Herbie the Volkswagen Beetle, one of six original Batmobiles used in the first Batman (1989) film, and a Ford Gran Torino from the television series Starsky & Hutch.[1] The museum closed down permanently in June 2018 after a dispute with the local council over business rates.[2] The vehicles have now been moved to other museums across the UK.[citation needed]
