One if the great best kept secrets of Ventura County. I have been several times and the Bugatti show is my favorite along wuth the permanent show of deco furniture and decorative items. Beautiful, large museums with an impressive collection. A must do experience for anyone who appreciates fine art and of course any auto buff!

Stunning, gorgeous collection celebrating the beauty of the French automobile. Save this museum for last. Its beautiful! The collection is also surprisingly large. Though the admission is $40, it includes a semiprivate tour, and is very much worth it!The docents were extremely knowledgeable and gave us a lot of very interesting information. They were able to answer some pretty obscure questions with very competent knowledge.The only other museum I saw that can compare was a private collection thats not available to the general public. If you enjoy art and beauty, it doesnt get any better than this!

Absolutely fantastic collection with knowledgeable docents. They specialize in French cars from the 20s and 30s, but even if you dont think thats your thing, its well worth the visit. If youre a car person at all, you should enjoy this museum. The price of entry is an amazing bargain for whats inside. The enthusiasm for the history of the display items is evident in everyone that works there. It is particularly enjoyable if you are a fan of Citroen and/or Bugatti.

Truly an amazing collection of automobiles. One of the finest Ive ever visited. Plenty of staff with specific knowledge to share the many individual stories that go with each car in the collection.

Wonderful museum with beautiful cars and friendly, well informed volunteers. We spent a decent amount of time speaking with Mr. Murphy who was well informed and very nice. And funny enough they had the prettiest bathrooms Ive ever seen!

I highly recommend this museum if you are a car buff. The collection of French cars from the 20s 30s, 40s is unbelievable. Most of these cars are beautifully restored. Some are rare, one of a kind. The tour guides are exceptionally knowledgeable. You can also browse through beautiful art deco pieces. Not to be missed.

Absolutely amazing private collection! It was a complete surprise to me to see so many of the cars Ive drooled over on T.V. and online in person for the first time. I cannot wait to return and go for another stroll around the museum.

The Mullin is a must see for car buffs! The collection is mostly 20s and 30s era French cars, but will also include later era French vehicles as well. Only open on two Saturdays a month to the general public, its worth putting a visit on your schedule. Do take the very extensive free tour. They happen at 10:30 and 12. There are no ropes so you can get up close to some of the rarest, most expensive cars in the world! Amazing!

The cars are like works of art! Collection strictly of French cars. Pay for the semi guided tour - worth the money. I have since seen Jay Leno review one of the famous cars here. Every car here has a story. My guide was extremely knowledgeable.

Stopped by with the kids on our way back home from a holiday vacation. Looks awesome but was not open to the public this day. Private showing is $55 per person. Public price in January is $18 for adults and free for active military.

The Mullin Automotive Museum houses one of the finest collections of French cars in the world and is a tribute to French automotive styling and the decorative arts that influenced the genre. They also host private events, like galas and weddings. Stunning venue!

Great exhibits of wonderfully spectacular cars. A great place to visits. So many historic cars in really great shape. We have come here a couple of times on our own and a couple of times we have brought large groups of people. After my last visit I think Im not coming back for a while.Its not close to us at all, its a pretty long drive, however, I really like supporting museums and introducing people to them.We brought a large group of people with us to show them the museum. I was stopped because I had a gopro with a hand grip and a wrist strap. The guest services lady told me that there were no tripods allowed, i kept trying to explain to her that its not a tripod and it just got really awkward.After all the awkwardness...I just decided to put the handgrip away and they agreed i could carry my gopro around and video. At that point I was pretty much in disbelief that they would go so far, carrying it in this way was a lot less stable.In the end I was just trying to document our trip and promote their museum.

I first heard about the 2017/18 Citroen exhibition, “Citroen: The Man, The Marque, The Mystique”, in 2016 when visiting the Mullin Automotive Museum in Oxnard with Jerry Hathaway of SM World. As a classic car enthusiast, Citroen SM and DS owner, the news of the Mullin Citroen exhibit was the initiator for another USA visit, this time to coincide with the Monterey Motor Weekend 2017.Fast-forward to August, a car buddy and fellow SM owner from OZ travelled to LA to attend the Mullin Citroen exhibit, along with Jerry Hathaway. Collated by Mr Peter Mullin, the Mullin Citroen Exhibit was in one word spectacular. The quality of the Citroen’s restorations, the exhibition design/lay-out and the museums friendly and knowledgeable staff, all made for a wonderful experience. The exhibit included five Henri Chapron creations, a number of SMs, Ds, Tractions and many more.Also on the display are the five unrestored Schlumpf Bugatti’s, a collection of wonderful Art deco figurines, the fascinating “Lake Maggiore Bugatti” and two spectacular 1930’s Delahay V12 race cars, one with a magnificent Henri Chapron 40’s carroserie.The visit to the Mullin Citroen exhibit totally exceeded my expectations, well worth the 14hr flight, an exhibition I can highly recommend to any classic car enthusiast.Lee, Melbourne, Australia.Date:5th Sept 2017

This place is o.k. They have vintage cars. If you are a fanatic of cars you will probably like it. It missing that wow factor for me. It has potential. If you are the curious type that likes to know who is doing what and how then visit, but as far as destinations are concerned The Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles is a better bet for your attention span and dollars.
