The Red Room

The Red Room is one of our most beloved exhibitions at Haynes Motor Museum, featuring over 40 red cars including a 1930 Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 Gran Turismo, a 1956 AC Ace and a 1981 Lamborghini Countach LP400S.

Originally curated by Museum founder John Haynes OBE, the collection spans a century of motoring history, showcasing why red has become the universal colour for speed, power, and prestige.

John Haynes believed that when you place a collection of cars in a single, uniform colour, the eye stops being distracted by the paint. Instead, you are encouraged to look more closely at the styling, lines, and engineering design of each individual vehicle.

Photos shown: 1981 Lamborghini Countach LP400S, a 1966 Jaguar XKSS Replica and a 1972 AC 428 Frua convertible

Entry to The Red Room is included with the Museum Entry Ticket.
