It’s a tough time for the entire world right now. We are in the midst of an unprecedented pandemic. The effects of this hyper-infectious virus known as Coronavirus, or Covid-19 have been felt worldwide. While no vaccine exists most affected countries have taken measures to curtail further spread within populations. Many people are confined to their homes as offices and work places are closed.  With that in mind we bring you this list of virtual car museum tours.

Motoring and motorsport events, such as the 2020 Geneva Motor Show and start of the Formula One season, have been cancelled or postponed. Who knows how long it will be before the world starts to embrace air travel en masse? Our list below lets you take virtual car museum tours through several showcases.

Pagani

We decided to start here because it is one of the smallest collections on display, and it’s one of the museums on the list that we’ve actually visited. Check out our bespoke images in this gallery. Take a look at some of the brand’s historical and modern machinery in the intimate collection.

Mazda

Because we are such fans of the Mazda MX-5 we had to bring you this one. You can take a full tour of the brand’s extensive collection of classic cars, modern racercars, and models from its long history. Check out these forgotten MX-5 concept cars.

We visited the Nissan Heritage Collection and took these pics.

Lamborghini

The Museo Lamborghini at the company’s headquarters in Italy hosts a beautiful collection of old and new Lamborghinis. Among the machinery are several concept and show cars. You can even explore inside some of the cars on display; how cool is that? This is another museum we’ve been fortunate to visit and you can see more images from our visit to the Lamborghini Museum here.
