British Commercial Vehicle Museum (BCVM), leyland. 4/11 pic heavy
 
right guys this is only across the road from where i live, as luck would have it there was a classic and vintage ford day on as well so there was also a load of private owed vehicles there. sorry about some of the pics guys there not the best but i dont edit.

here is the web site if anybody is going to head over http://www.bcvm.co.uk/events.htm id ring and check before traveling as its not always open! 9th & 10th July should be of interest as its leyland festival which has 100 or so vehicles from tanks to steam tractors driving through the town.

This place is well worth a look if you like big trucks n stuff, pity they don't rotate the exhibits much though.
