24 Hours of Le Mans is one of the most legendary endurance motor racing events in the world, and its challenges have influenced innovations in motorcar styling and technology throughout its history.

Le Mans Through The Ages is an exhibition at Coventry Transport Museum, that celebrates the cars, the drivers and the stories which together make up the history of this extraordinary annual event.

Some of the cars confirmed as part of the Exhibition are:

Don’t miss this wonderful opportunity to get up close and personal with some of the actual vehicles which have risen to
the challenge of the 24 hour race, and in the process contributed to advances in the production cars we buy today.
