Does anyone know where there is a car museum in the North-West?

I'm trying to think of birthday present ideas for my boyfriend who likes cars and anything to do with cars. Any other ideas? I don't want to spend too much - maybe £40 max. I thought if there was a car museum I could take him.

Answers:
depends where you live in the North West, personally Id agree the Manchester Museum of Transport & Industry is a great starting point.

not to sure how much car related exhibts there are, but I seem to rememebr it appealled to the small boy in most Men. However it may not suit an out and out petrolhead.

PS I know some people think the south IS the UK, but Beaulieu is on the south coast ffs!
The Cars of the Stars are in the Lake District. That's quite good. I presume it's still there.
What a great idea. Also look for any car shows in the area. Those can be fun too. Try Google
Go to Beaulieu, i did this as a trip for my BF's birthday and he loved it! (Did an overnight stay nearby too :-)
The Cars, The Stars in Keswick, Cumbria is well work an hour's browsing.
The Space and Transport Museum in Manchester, at Castlefields, has cars, bikes, airoplanes, motorcycles, and rockets.
Keswick has a car museum , quite good
You ask for museums in the North West, so somebody suggests Beaulieu - or am I seeing things? Stick for "The Cars, The Stars" in Keswick, although photography is banned..
