This small town is best known for its excellent car museum. If you’re not into cars, it’s still a nice spot to stop for a drink or two.
This museum provides a good overview of Australian motoring history with over 300 cars, motorcycles and commercial vehicles. The National Motor Museum also features relics from South Australia’s colonial past and interpretive exhibits in the recently opened Holden Pavillion of Australian Motoring.
