Excellent collection of cars! Couldn't imagine that there was so much variety those days. It was indde worth the visit. Would like to visit it again as time was insufficient this time.

While on holiday in New Zealand, my wife Liz and myself came accross Southward Car Museum by accident. We decided to have a look. WOW what a fantastic place, we were there for about 4hrs. As we were looking at the cars all I could say was I have had one of those and one of those and one of those. It was a trip down memory lane for me, we agree that ...

In London we have Harrods as a tourist attraction, in New Zealand you have Southward Car Museum. Why do people not know this? It made our trip to New Zealand worthwhile. I wish I had arrived earlier and been able to meet Sir Len Southward.

we came to nz in 2006 and stayed 3 mounths, we found your car museum, and must say it was the best car museum we have ever seen.Hope to come back one day. Jackie and Dick UK.

I've been to NZ twice and on both trips I've gone out of my way to visit the Southward Car museum. The collection of cars there is very interesting and impressive. My wife even enjoyed it (and we were on our honeymoon!).

Without doubt, one of the finest collection of "working" motor vehicles from the past to the present. Discovered it by accident and could have easily stayed a whole day if not for timings and a wife who is not a motoring nutcase.

Treasures include an 1895 Benz, Maserati 250F, Delorean (DMC) to a range of vintage motor cycles. Pure heaven.

Highly recommended to all

We have visited the museum on both trips to New Zealand and would highly recomend it to and car enthusiest. On bithe visits it was great to see different displays. We have made it a must visit on our next trip to the shakey ilses.
