Now showing at Beaulieu – welcome to the World of Top Gear!

If you’ve ever wondered what happened to the cars that were battered, modified and generally ruined by the BBC’s Top Gear team, we have some excellent news!

Because not even the dodgiest used car dealers would buy them, we’ve lovingly gathered them up and displayed them in the World of Top Gear – a special exhibition in homage to the world’s biggest car show.


refreshed and ready to go!

World of Top Gear features vehicles from every era of the Top Gear challenges, including old favourites like the Reliant Robin Space Shuttle, as well as fresh, new exhibits from filming with Paddy McGuinness, Chris Harris and Freddie Flintoff.
