Squadra 84, Lier, 20250517
Europe's newest car museum Squadra Abarth & Rally Collection opened just two weeks ago in Lier, Belgium. From my home it is a little over an hour by car and is there a better way to kickstart your weekend then by checking out at a bunch of old automobiles? I think... no! It opens at 10:00am. I was there at 10:00am. Out at 13:00 hours. Is it good? Yes. Yes it is.
Gentlemen, it is with great pleasure that I can inform you that the Club of Automobile Museum Connoisseurs has rated this new establishment with 5 out of 5 stars. I like to congratulate the Kingdom of Belgium and the continent of Europe wih this great achievement. You may drink a can of Fernandezzz Super-Pineapple (the offical soda of the Club of Automobile Museum Connoisseurs).
Collection is good, presentation is great. 150 automobiles, beautiful new 9 level concrete building but it has lots of wood which gives it a bit of warmth. It is very boxy and has 70s elegance. Lots and lots of natural light and no barriers around the automobiles, you can walk around them. I love, love, love that! Lots of space too. I'm not too sure about the layout (the location of the cars on he different floors) but they just opened, they'll figure it out. Little shop and café on ground floor. Parking is free but entrance is a steep at a freaking €19! That is an amount where you think: 'yo, this better be good'. But it is! Go and see it.
