Piloting the Bluebird K4 on Coniston Water, on 19th August 1939, Sir Malcolm Campbell raised the World Water Speed Record to 141.74mph - a record still held on his death in 1948.
Our faithful representation of Bluebird K4 formed part of a Magnificent Rolls Royce Centenary central display at the 2004 Goodwood Festival of Speed.
As well as getting up close to this magnificent vehicle, the collection features interpretation panels, Bluebird memorabilia, engine information & and an AV presentation.
