Intro
With the winter period, many museums close their doors, and therefore the number of exhibitions logically decreases. But some museums such as Autoworld Brussels or the Savoy Automobile Museum in Georgia (USA) continue to develop their programs. MG, famous for its small roadsters, is celebrating its 100th anniversary, and after the photos in Beaulieu, Autoworld continues the festivities with the centenary exhibition, while waiting for other celebrations such as at Rétromobile next February. At the Savoy Automobile Museum, Wayne Kady, a major American designer of the General Motors group, is in the spotlight. The birth of a new car museum is an important event for all enthusiasts, and it is in Germany that the Nationales Auto Museum has opened, exhibiting the Loh Collection, more than 130 historic, touring, sports and racing cars. And in addition to the museum, an exhibition dedicated to the centenary of the 24 Hours of Le Mans will be open all winter, bringing the centenary festivities to a close.
Info on web site
The Automobile Museums website continues to grow, with the introduction of the brand new Nationales Auto Museum – the Loh Collection, which exhibits the collection built up by Friedhelm Loh over the years. There are now 94 museums listed, awaiting several entries and updates in the coming weeks.

Rather than a museum, let’s take a look back this month at the époqu’auto show held in Lyon from 10 to 12 November, constituting a real ephemeral museum with several hundred cars on display and beautiful tributes to Cadillac, Peugeot and Talbot, among others.
