Classic Cars at everyone's sight in Europe

Roda Museum, Lérida, Spain
 Along the history of motoring, which already has quite some years to its account, an attractive offer of collections and pieces which belong in museums has been formed. All over the world, the so called engine tourism grows and positions itself.
Worldwide, people create museums to display cars coming in all brands and sizes. Here are five options you can't miss!
As a first option we propose the Museum of Roda, in Lérida, Spain. It is an original initiative, displaying cars belonging to the the Clubs of Classics in the city and it is placed in an old mechanical work shop.
Among its most interesting pieces is the old Taxi of Barcelona.
Another building to highlight is the Museum of Caramulu, Portugal. It began as a collection, which belonged to João de Lacerda, in 1955 with a Ford T from 1925. At present, this museum has a permanent exhibit of 30 motorcycles and 65 automobiles, representing 36 brands of about 7 different countries.
Museum Torre de Loiza

Placed in a beautiful landscape not so easy to get to, the museum Torre de Loizaga has the most comprehensive collection of Rolls-Royce in the world, for they have at least one unit of every model ever made by this brand. Most of them are perfectly conserved to these days.
The Museo de la Historia de la Automoción (Museum of the History of Automotion) in Salamanca is also amongst the greatest museums. It's main pillar is the Gómez Planche Collection, made up of more than one hundred vehicles, thousands of parts, accessories and objects related to automobiles, as well as an impressive bibliographical archive, gathered for forty years.
And closing up the museum Braga Fafe, in Portugal, considered for many years the "Rallies Cathedral". Braga has preserved a good taste for automobiles with a modern museum inaugurated in 1996, it exhibits a display of the classics from 1903 to 1996. It is regarded as one of the most complete contemporary museums in the planet.
