Brakes are off new look National Motor Museum website

The National Motor Museum has launched a brand-new website to enable motoring enthusiasts and history buffs world-wide to discover the story of motoring in Britain.

The new look website – www.nationalmotormuseum.org.uk – reflects the Museum’s new brand identity and uses fresh new photography and pages of articles and inspiring multimedia content to share the Museum’s famous collections of vehicles and motoring memorabilia.

Additional pages allows supporters of the Museum to discover more about its educational and restoration projects, enables the public to make online donations, to book tickets for National Motor Museum events, and, before long, to join the Friends of the National motor Museum Trust and the patrons of Beaulieu 100, and to create an account for easier renewal and updating.

Jon Murden, Chief Executive of the National Motor Museum says, “Our new website is a step-change in engaging with our audiences. Its fresh new presentation allows us to showcase our new brand and gives our supporters, potential visitors and enthusiast access to a huge online resource.”

The new website is integrated with the Museum’s social media with links to a new Instagram account @nationalmotormuseum in addition to the Museum’s own YouTube channel, X, BlueSky and LinkedIn social media streams.

Jon adds, “The Museum is proud of its heritage as one of the world’s first motor museums. Refreshing our website is just the start of an exciting new journey; our website will develop its content as exhibitions in the museum at Beaulieu change and the museum itself is re-developed and transformed.”

The National Motor Museum’s new website was developed using the Umbraco Content Management System by the museum’s team working with Southampton based web developers Semantic.
