a 60 year lease from 1972 takes it to 2032 non? it’s not quite dead yet!

Lease runs from 1970. They're going to have a hard time finding somewhere to house it that is as good.

Ive been to Gaydon, but totally missed Beaulieu, will make sure I visit before its too late.

I haven’t been since 1980 so I must go too. Been meaning to for a while.

Last time I went was when a friend at uni lived nearby, probably 1999.

I’m another that would like to go before it closes.

I went in the early 80s but I still remember seeing the Jaffa Mini driving around and going on the monorail.

We went 4 years ago and it was excellent, a real shame as the whole area the museum on makes it a proper day out and not just a few hours at a museum.

A car club was there aswell doing its own thing but happy to have guests look around, rides on old buses etc.

A shame but hopefully they get the opprertunitybto build bigger and better.

Dave!

We’ve got a week away down near Weymouth next month, about 2 hours away from here. Were contemplating going but guess it’s a must now it’s future is looking vague

[Jobbo]

If anyone's planning on going in the near future, check the traffic through Lyndhurst and avoid it if you can - the A31 closure due to the New Forest fire still seems to be in place.
