Costs 6 Euro for Entry, or 15 for a family. They do a tour for 30 Euro, but I'm not sure about the language.
There's another automuseum in Wolfsburg too. They do tours of the VW factory, where they produce the Lupo, 3-Liter-Lupo, Golf, Golf Variant, Bora, Bora Variant. Might be worth a visit more just for the museum? The do a daily tour of the Factory in English at 12.45pm. You can call and speak to them in English about your plans on +49 5361 400.

As for transport, hire a car. The region of Braunschweig is a couple of hours away from Berlin, and trains can be a pain in Germany (what with terrorists trying to derail them etc.) Trains are also pretty expensive, and you'll be happier and more comfortable in a car (tho' the LHD change will freak you out at first!). You can get a small hire car (Golf, Smart etc) pretty cheaply from Sixt, and will probaly be better off than with public transport.

THe Autobahns are really easy to follow, and if you go this route, I'll make you up a directions pack. You could also do it yourself with:

You'll get full directions from where your staying to where your going on here. You just need the street names and cities. Any probs, give us a buzz.
CU!
Martin.
