Highlands National Motorsport Museum

The National Motorsport Museum sits inside Highlands Motorsport Park, on the corner of State Highway 6 and Sandflat Road in Cromwell, Central Otago. Highlands runs it beside its circuit, karts and drive experiences, and the museum is a walk in attraction open seven days a week.

Highlands describes the collection as home to some of the rarest cars in New Zealand motorsport history. Its own museum page names two headline cars: Michael Schumacher's Benetton Formula 1 car and an Aston Martin Vulcan, which Highlands puts at $4.2 million. An authentic American sheriff's patrol car is on display too.

The museum also holds the Young Guns Virtual Reality Room. The rest of the park, with its circuit, karts and drives, is on the same site.
