DAF Museum

Took a visit to the DAF museum in Eindhoven on Sunday and there were some pretty interesting trucks and cars there - especially liked the Dakar rally stuff:

The good old 3300, had many trips out in one of them, they didn’t like steep hills fully loaded...lol:

Looks like a great museum.

Great photos. Thanks

What was the reason for David Coulthards F1 car being in the DAF museum. I apologise now for being thick if there is an obvious answer I have missed.

Worth a visit is the Truck museum in Leyland in the UK as well, although that doesn’t look quite as big as this one.

I bet there was some oil on the floor! Abit like a land rover the old DAF's really loved marking their territory !

The museum at Leyland is very good but it is closed for refurb at the moment,

2014 Defender 90 Puma 2.2 XS CSW Aintree Green

That looks like the Williams Renault FW15C as raced by Prost and Hill in 1993. DC was test and reserve driver in 93 so I guess that's why his name is in the car...

Is the white and blue Dakar truck the DAF TurboTwin?

Edited: it is indeed. 2400 bhp. My favourite truck ever. 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS
