This collection is one of the most valuable and diverse assemblages of cars in the world.

The aforementioned BMW M5 Wagon is widely regarded as one of the most coveted M cars ever sold. Never being sold in the US, this M5 Wagon is equipped with a 5-speed transmission and the odometer only reads 100,000 miles. It becomes apparent upon inspection that this car was very well taken care of. One other thing worth pointing out is the fact that this was the 3rd car off of the production line. The car is also finished in an ultra-rare aubergine color, which commands high praise due to the rarity and status of this car.
Another piece to this mostly European collection is an almost track-ready 1972 Corvette. This fresh breath of American air is sporting a Chevy small-block V8 mated to a 4-speed transmission. The factory-wide arches allow for larger Hoosier racing tires. Handling is controlled by a positrac rear axle, this allows for this Corvette to hold onto the track and take the turns like a pro. These cars are ultra-rare in England due to the stigma around the limited access to parts. However, the owner says that this is a relatively simple car to work on and race. Another rare vehicle on this list is the Healey 3000 produced by the Austin Healey which is one of the more 'classic' European cars on this list. This left-hand drive masterpiece was bought for £37,000 originally and has risen in value exponentially since.
