Aston Martin Heritage Trust Museum

The Aston Martin Heritage Trust Museum (aka the Aston Martin Museum[1]) is an automobile museum presenting the history of Aston Martin cars. It is located in Dorcester Road in the village of Drayton St Leonard, South Oxfordshire, England.

The museum was founded in 1998 and opened in 2002.[2] It is housed in a 15th-century barn, built by the monks of Dorchester Abbey.[1] The collection ranges from the oldest surviving Aston Martin car to a Vanquish Volante pre-production model dating from 2013.[3]

The museum is run by the Aston Martin Heritage Trust, located on the same site.[4] The Aston Martin Owners Club also has its headquarters here.[1]
