A mate has something similar in his converted swimming pool complex. When I went there last month he had the following:
Ferrari 550 Maranello
1990 Porsche Turbo (one of a limited edition of 50)
Lotus Elan convertible (the FHC was away being fettled)
Ferrari Daytona
Porsche Targa
Bentley (not sure of model)
Radical
Porsche GT3
RS Focus
Ferrari 512
Bristol
F40
Porsche 997 GT2

No photos I'm afraid, but fantastic to see them all, and they all get driven how they are supposed to be!

Then there are the race cars.........

I thought that rang a bell too!


The mind boggles at how it would be to live such a lifestyle!

No, not communications.

I should have mentioned that the Elans are both Sprints, and there were a couple of Range Rovers kicking around too.

I've known him for over 40 years, and our taste in cars has always been similar, except he can afford them! We both had Escort Mexicos, RS 2000s, Golf GTIs, 3-door Cosworths at around the same time, but then he started to make real money

It sounds great to own a heap of super cars but such guys very rarely drive or enjoy them and when they do fancy a drive they never work because they are dead.
The guy that I mentioned who owns just about every super car there is was telling me they are spread out all over the world in showrooms?

He has 2 FFX's (nearly £1M each) kept at Ferrari which he has never driven,
Hardly ever drives his other 38 cars and uses black Enzo as his every day driver.
Had delivery of his new Koen' CCX 2 months ago and has not sat in the thing yet. He bought that off a guy for 100K less than the guy paid for it and the former owner never sat in the car once??

Mad...

Can't see the point in having them if you don't use them.

This appeared on the net, it's one of his T70s in his workshop. The 962C next to it is also his, and there are also a lightweight E-type, Daytona Competizione and Carrera RSR so his race days are fairly busy
