Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

It's free to enter the park but the transport attractions attract a fee or donation. There is so much to see in the Motor Museum, fabulous restorations of old vehicles, the style and glamour of the earlier designs, etc, etc. I decided to view the miniatures and scaled replicas and didn't get past the first building. So, so many on display. By the time we departed we decided that we had enough and the Tractor and Revolution Transport Museums could wait to another day. If you are a motor fanatic, the Motor Museum is a "must see."

We had some time on our hands as we headed North East from Perth. We located the Motor Museum. It was in a great area within a parkland setting. Some amazing vehicles, an incredible collection of model vehicles and well set out. I would highly recommend a trip to this museum

If you like car museums and are in Perth, make sure you visit this place in Whitman park. My son and I went on 25th October 2024 while on a trip to Perth. We thoroughly enjoyed the museum. So many wonderful cars, motor bikes and even race cars. They even had the same model of my first car. We loved it.

Highly recommend a visit to Motor Museum of WA @ Whitman. An incredible display of vehicles, motorcycles and insight into motoring history. Highlight was one a Daniel Ricciardo’s F1 racing cars. The displays are in pristine condition and it’s obvious all involved have a great love for the museum.

The Motor Museum of Western Australia has an interesting display of veteran motor vehicles. Many of the vehicles are quite rare, including interesting racing cars. Australian-built cars from days gone by are on show. The Motor Museum of WA is located at Whiteman Park in the Upper Swan Valley. Motoring enthusiasts will be rewarded by a visit.

The Motor Museum of WA has over 200 vehicles on display, from the horse and carriage era to the present day. It's one of the largest privately-owned collections of vehicles and motoring memorabilia in Australia. The collection ranges from F-1 racers to unpretentious Holdens. It will take an hour or two to inspect the collection.

An amazing collection of cars, motorbikes, and motoring paraphernalia. A highlight for the teen boy was the F1 car. A highlight for his Dad was anything Holden. And the staff were really really lovely and very knowledgeable

Incredible opportunity to view classic cars from many different eras & areas of the world. There is a lot to see and things are well spread out. We spent 90 minutes there but could easily have been there for 3 hours. Each car tells a story. We might have benefitted from a guided tour if those had been available but really enjoyed it nonetheless. If you know any gearheads take them here!

Wow, I was pleasantly surprised by the museum. It has a huge range of cars dating back over 100 years.
The cars are kept in pristine condition. It’s definitely a place to visit when you are in Perth.
