Coventry Transport Museum houses the world's two fastest cars: Thrust SSC and Thrust 2. You can get up close to these record-breaking British engineering feats. The museum holds the largest collection of British vehicles and includes interactive exhibitions. There is a 4D simulator where you can experience Thrust SSC's record-breaking drive. A Family Play Zone with self-led crafts is included with admission and welcoming to all ages, though aimed at under-5s. The museum offers school sessions and a family programme around science, technology, engineering and maths.
