See what we have been up with our April 2026 edition of the Museum Musings.
It’s been a big couple of months here at the Motor Museum of Western Australia with volunteer led activities, car shows, celebrations, new vehicles on display, restoration projects and much more!
To view the latest April edition in full of the Motor Museum of Western Australia’s “Museum Musings”, please visit our dedicated page, which includes back editions for your reading pleasure. Below are a couple of excerpts from the April 2026 newsletter.
New Operable Wall (Bi fold glass doors) for the RAC Learning Hub

The new doors have opened up the RAC leaning Hub to offer a direct extension into the Ricciardo Hall, providing an event and display space that we haven’t been able to utilise in the past.
The direct access between the room and the Ricciardo Hall now affords an opportunity to host other Whiteman Park leaseholders, CMC clubs and corporate partners, along with friends of the Museum, to use the new space to hold meetings and functions etc.
We are hoping to attract educational groups, business entities to use the new space for unique promotional activities.
Be one of the first to use this newly opened space. Contact us to reserve the room for your special event.
New Display – 1960 Mercedes Benz 300d Adenauer Saloon

This model is a highly sought after classic, representing a blend of superior conservative engineering with stately elegant styling. It was considered a premier luxury car of its time, rivalling the Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud in both luxury and price.
It features a 3.0-litre fuel injected in line-six cylinder engine, producing 160 horsepower, housed in a stately pillarless long wheelbase body.
Only 3,077 were produced between 1957 and 1962; a small number for a German production run.
Google Reviews – We love receiving your feedback!
The museum regularly received positive feedback from visitors on Google, Klook, TripAdvisor, among others. The below review was shared with us recently and is worthy of sharing as it is a real testament to the commitment, effort and dedication our volunteers put into the Museum – a job continuing to be very well done.
