Well they were that much new so I'd hope so !
I can imagine the M3's and 190 would be worth a LOT of money too.
Gone to a collector now to sit in another museum !

I am quite certain if he can afford to just buy those and put them in a Museum he can afford quite a nice daily driver lol
I totally agree though, they would be ruined if they were now used.

I met John Kennedy the day he bought his RS200 which had only had just turned 1000 miles after he test drove it, i know he paid a fair whack for that can't 100% remember but i though he said is was originally up for Ł90k.
The collection above is amazing and wouldn't mind opening the garage door to that lot

yea if he can afford to buy them i'm sure he could buy examples with more miles on to actually put into use, i'd love to see his hole collection cos by the sounds of it this isn't the only cars he has.
good link though nice to no stuff like this is still 20 odd years on coming to light.

Wow! Awesome thread. Just read the whole post on that BMW forum.
In a way its a shame that these cars are probably never going to get driven, but at least the guy that bought them (all four cars!) does sound like a genuine down to earth enthusiast. Happy to post lots of pics and document the work he does to the cars.
I suppose that as they have not been driven in 20-25 years, it makes sense to keep them as mint museum pieces now.

What does that guy do for a living as he must have a SERIOUS amount of money invested in his amazing collection !!!
Him and Gerard Connely from Ireland have without doubt the best collection you could ever ask for !!!

Speaking of barn finds, this has been all over the internet the last few days. Honda NR750 and RC30. Freshly unpacked, zero mileage on both.

Me neither, Steve reckons that nearly everyone who drives a standard one is bitterly dissapointed though, as they just dont live up to the hype at all. Which makes sense as they are basically just slow and uncomfortable cars with robin reliant build quality in standard form if you think about it by what we are all used to these days.
Still cool though.
