Default What a collection - envious or what!!!

This seriously lucky guy has an amazing collection of mint classic Fords (plus others), see link below.

http://bbs.rsownersclub.co.uk/showthread.php?t=201436

Would love to know what he does for a living to not only be able to buy such a collection but also to house them and pay another guy to look after them full time.

Apologies if this is a repost but to be honest it's worth seeing again and if anybody hasn't seen it before then sit yourself comfortably and prepare to slobber.

Of cause it's a repost, but a repost could not be more worthy on this site.

Awesome.

An awesome collection indeed, and theres loads more not pictured.

Theres also been a few additions lately too, not all Ford!!
An RS200 and two '89-'90 E30 M3's, each with less than 100miles from new.

Truely stunning cars

He is the owner of a car dealership called trade centre wales, seemed like a nice chap from when he came to the Bristol and Swindon RS show with us (West wales RSOC) last year.

He bought the 2 M3s off a billionaire that bought them for his sons as an investment for when the sons were older, obviously for some reason the sons didn't want them so the billionaire decided to sell them on. He also got the RS200 from the same guy.

Regarding the open day i think i read on another forum that it would be by invitation only which you can hardly blame him for. I think if i had a collection like that i would be careful who i told where it was kept.
