As far as I know the XJ220 is still there.
Haynes have recently spent a lot of money (about £5 million) on the museum.
A really good place before, and now it is even better, so I am looking forward to getting across there again.

I hope you can make it down here Rich!

My dad lives in Bristol, so there is a chance I could bring him along too. Just will have to see closer to the time.

I do really like the XJ220 not sure why, it is not a great looker? perhaps it is because it is a proper British supercar with a real story.

I might be up for this but too far in a day, so I'll need somewhere to stay.

Hello Jim

There is a Travel Lodge at Podimore which is not too far away from Haynes if this helps. I have attached a link for you.
