Auto Rendezvous Museum Bangkok

Auto Rendezvous Museum Bangkok (the Thai name translates as the car lovers' museum) sits inside the headquarters of Inter-Media Consultant on Soi Ramkhamhaeng 39 in Wang Thonglang, the company that runs the Bangkok International Motor Expo. It was opened by IMC's chairman Khwanchai Paphatphong, who is also president of the Vintage Car Club of Thailand, which makes it as close as Bangkok has to an official home for the country's old car establishment.

The collection is laid out the way the club judges its concours, by the seven FIVA age classes: ancestor cars to 1904, veterans to 1918, vintage to 1930, pre war to 1945, post war to 1960, classics to 1970 and modern classics of at least thirty years. That structure is the exhibit; you walk the history of the motor car in order, with the artefacts and the reference library alongside, and it is pitched at students and enthusiasts rather than at tour buses. It has hosted Chulalongkorn engineering classes and club gatherings.

Treat it as a by arrangement visit. Hours are listed as weekdays 11am to 5pm, but no admission price or walk in policy is published, so phone IMC before you go and pair it with the Vintage Car Club's own events calendar if you want to see the cars moving.

• Cars arranged in the seven FIVA age classes from pre 1904 to modern classics, so the room reads as a timeline.
• Automotive artefacts and a reference library beside the cars.
• Club and student groups are the usual visitors; individual visits are by contacting IMC.
• Founded by the president of the Vintage Car Club of Thailand; the club's Facebook page is where its shows and rallies are posted.
• A Ramkhamhaeng soi in Wang Thonglang, east of central Bangkok; taxi or car, not the tourist rail lines.

• Listed hours are Monday to Friday 11am to 5pm, closed weekends; confirm and arrange a visit on 02 055 8444 before travelling, as no walk in policy or admission price is published.
• Specific cars on display are not published; the collection is presented by age class rather than as a headline car list.
• Small, institution run venue: expect a hosted visit rather than self guided wandering.
