With a private collection ranging from an 1899 Decauville to a 1978 Porsche, the Mehmet Arsay Classic Car Museum is open on Saturday and Sunday. The concept of an automobile museum did not gain popularity until the 1990s. Arsay, a car collector, founded Turkey's first car museum in 1994.
Lying in Istanbul's İkitelli district, the museum displays nostalgic cars mostly brought from abroad. Among them, there is a staff car of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of the Turkish Republic, which was renovated with the consent of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey (TBMM).
A workshop opened behind the museum is where all cars undergo thorough renovation and maintenance. Cengiz Arsay, a businessman, established the museum in memory of his father. He frequently uses his classic cars, and is happy to see people, especially youth, showing interest in cars.
