And I saw the pictures of those cars in that warehouse and thought, I've got to see them.

Guess where we are.

We're with them species I don't see it is likely the most extraordinary room full of cars I've ever seen.

I don't have the stats, but I think if you looked at my browser history for used cars, more time will be spent looking at used BMW M cars, al Penis, a MGs, that kind of stuff in anything else, those of the cars that for some reason, I can't get enough off.

And I just walked into a room.

Well, Alpena mint meant that would be seven turbo mint that looks like a 65 CS.

I probably an M six e 60 m five in Europe.

Paddles Remember that big outcry journalists like me saying it didn't have a manual gearbox like the only 39 but these ones, But in America they did a six speed manual for a while.

They're both manuals over here in Europe.

I wasn't aware of any others in Europe.

I mean, that is but special.

Opens door inside stick.

Look at the seat.

Bolster on that car.

You show me any 60 and five doesn't have a collapsed driver's seat belt, so they'll do.

This one doesn't like everything else.

Here.

It's absolutely mint.

There are three three three e 38 Al Pena, Seven series is here.

There's, Ah, six liter of 5.7.

Another 62.

I've wanted one of these ever since the first drove one in 2001.

The only place I've ever seen Maur than one of these with, I think the Geneva Motor Show anything.

Even then they only had two.

There were three here.

And then you just drunk on E 30 eights.

And you think, Well, what's behind all?

Look, there's a 28 mint.

Be seven Turbo.

I have not seen one of those in the rule before, so just just stay there while I have been a man moment to myself.

Wait there.

I'm breathing.

Okay, Right.

So this is, um, any 28 with with the cross bucket seats.

I mean, look at them.

They're just perfect.

Look at the steering wheel, Fellow sand people.

What's the first thing you do when you approach an old BMW?

You look in the boot for the tool kit, don't you?

So let's just choose one.

This is a 65 CS.

I come here.

Come on, then put the boot.

If it goes, look inside.

Undo, undo, undo.

Perfect.

Absolutely perfect Look.

A screwdriver while the spoilers so good my sport is.

What good is that?

All the rubber's just right and it's not perished on extended wheelbase.

Seven.

Siri's Another 10 no, this is the older isn't What about E 32?

Oh, look needs a rare as well as our load of eight series.

That's an 8 50 Sea ice is a 50 ccs I.

That's a 5.7.

I think these are rare.

Is your light looking?

Got a knack of duct on the bonnet.

The afternoon Martin Lagonda mill told you not to take food.

Let's have a look at it.

Wheel rim tire.

Okay, that is a 15 inch rim.

This is a 255 65 R 15 Avon Turbo Speed L J K set right would love that.

Tie loved the naval on turbo speed of the Honda Prelude is Well, didn't they had a Bristol?

I'm not sure if he loved Master Martin Lagonda there.

We'll go back to my old car magazines that were Just Look at it, Come on.

I mean, it started out pretty haphazard, but by the end, they got it.

Now, this is a great looking car.

It's massive, and there's no room inside.

But look how cool it is.

I want one of these right near the movement of these.

We're just gonna take a few minutes out because I actually need to go and have a a chap with myself because I have never seen anything like it.

This feels like therapy feels like I'm finally revealing how much I like cars of this era.

They just excite me.

This is for I want to pay.

And if being W or al peen is not your thing, there's always the Mercedes AMG corner that's actually a lie.

Because behind you there's a load more.

I am G's, but let's start with these 600.

Another 600.

Look at these.

We've got s cells and s C C's Is it a 500?

Look how sexy is with the slightly flared arches?

This comes from a time when people understood quietly demonstrating your potential.

You know C 1 to 6 a.m. GS.

So that's basically the big Merc coupe A from the mid eighties with wide arch body hit.

I mean, it's just the signature fug car, isn't it?

It couldn't look better.

Come and have a look inside this because the eighties was the decade of excess and the eighties wasn't smug.

With hindsight, the eighties was proud to be the eighties in the eighties.

Love buttons.

This seat has 13 buttons alone.

This one seat Let me.

There's 26 across the two of them on the dashboard, on the clock faces on the you know, when it all goes electric soon, I think I might want one of these.

I've never done this before, but I'm taking photos myself.

So you just go from something else.

Now where did you deal?

We're gonna go to the estate car.

I never thought I'd say this.

I'm about to walk straight past a 300 SCL 6.3.

What?

Look at that Because that is one of my dream cars, but we need to ignore that to get to.

But that is a doubly 123 touring estate car on Dhe.

It's beans AMG, and it has a five litre engine in it, which would have been from an S class.

You might know of a cool car on the planet than that, but I don't look at it.

Yes, so that's an SL 70.

The board out version by M.

G on that engine became the basis off the come on answers on a postcard.

You're right.

That became the engine that went in the Zonda on these are not worth a few quid because there aren't any more is on the engine.

So the only way to get his on the engine is to buy one of these and do something unspeakable to it.

I wonder if you could just sort of live here, have a tent the motor home in the middle and just just hang out with how wonderfully random is this.

So Americans back to 80 big bumpers to 80 turbo little love said Cast.

The camera's shaking a bit because he's getting excited and they just get better.

Look at the target panels on that.

Another 2 80 in that sort of late seventies early eighties metallic brown color.

And now we come to the 50th anniversary.

Turbo, you have to see inside this car for the sheer madness of what was going on.

Come on the side.

I'll let you in here.

Get squeezed with a look at this dashboard.

Can you see that?

That is madness.

Down here we have.

We have a body sonic amplifier with two rotary dials that just say intensity in the middle.

We've got electorally dampers.

I bet they don't work on.

We've got any sort of amazing things.

Here is just theeighties climate control.

God, it's so cool.

Look at the steering wheel.

This is all the stuff we're going to miss when the world becomes electric and boring.

This is just madness.

Look at these dials here.

Wonderful.

It's gonna stick.

That's a manual 9 to 8 GTs.

That's some 40,000 miles and is in mint condition.

I don't think that's a repeatable proposition.

It's even got the kind of purple leather interior that I want, what you need to know about a 9 to 8 if you met with a 90 rates trim, it never goes back the same way.

Any interior panel, any exterior panel, a rubber, a union, any of these bits here it's been tampered with will never go back the right way.

This car is completely mint.

I've never seen one as good as this.

These are perfect.

The rubbers are perfect.

So this isn't a room full of motley old junk.

This is a room full of the best cars I've seen.

These are absolutely perfect Bentleys on what's really, really surprising about this era of Bentley.

Now is that when I used to see them as a kid, they looked absurdly big on ostentatious.

But of course, now, because every cars so big on because people are obsessed with SUVs thes look just the right size for a large motorcar to me.

What's that one that early continents like?

He's got big wheels.

It might be it might be a special one.

Let's have a look.

That is a quantity, right?

So this is really special to calipers for the big old beast.

I love that from that era twin calipers still with a disc that you see, all the Ford Focus.

Now we're getting to the air of cars were actually tested them.

So I remember driving one of these when it was good like that, Doris.

And this one is definitely in better condition than the one that I saw that came from the factory.

It's mint, absolutely mint.

These were really good fun.

Renno five Turbo, too Leather interior, 29,000 kilometers red.

What more do you say?

One of the coolest looking cars ever made.

I still have no idea what run over smoking when they did this.

But I quite like some Mitsubishi story in Mitsubishi's Darrien.

Come on, have a look in here.

This is This is more eighties than Bruce Willis watching Rocky
