Can neve understand that people collect these things and dont get to enjoy them with other people , you cant take it with you

I totally agree with you. If you listen carefully to the lady the owner of the collection is not very well and as a result is downsizing

He used the race cars in his collection and later in the video there are engines, gearboxes, body shop equipment... I think the guy was hands on at some point and then his health started to deteriorate

This is an impressive collection


Wow that is an amazing collection. Not sure how to feel though....quite an unimaginable amount of money spent....yet part of me feels there is a lack of appreciation in how they are preserved.

So many flat tyres! Two and three racks high; most of those won’t have moved in sadly 30 years or more; even if you have more than enough money it is sad that nobody else has been able to enjoy them. They will almost all need rebuilding to keep the fluids in the right places!

I agree, so many appear to have been bought and simply left for decades.

Unfortunately falls into the “tw@t in a flat cap” historic motorsport trap. Goodwood has a lot to apologise for. A tweed cap should only worn if you’re Fred Dibnah or spend the day with your arm up a cow’s bottom.

Rant over, watch vid

We’ll get down from that chimney, remove the ferret from your kegs and take the whippet for a walk before your tripe fritters get cold.

I've just watched this on the TV in HD or it might be 4k not sure

I can honestly say if I'd been a passenger I would definitely need a clean up by the time it was over

Man that thing is fast aerial atom lap of the nurburgring, FF the first couple of minutes

Super smooth lap though, perfect lines -so someone knew what they were doing!
Gotta love the s/c whine.
That orange 911 Gt3? was flying and he never caught it up!
