Impressive Garages

Post by David Edgar » Sun Feb 03, 2013 12:56 pm

OK so while there are no MGs in this garage, it is somewhat impressive.

More show than go, but a nice place to hang out for sure. I'd like to see a work area and the door not blocked by show cars though. ;)

That, and I'm in shock about a $2.5M 1960's Plymouth! I wonder if he exaggerated the value a bit.

(I edited in the video, hope you don't mind)

Well - not a garage BUT

the largest privately owned collection of automobiles, motorcycles, trucks and other vehicles in the world.

And then there's the Sultan of Brunei's garage...contents valued at $5,000,000,000.


A list of what is in there:

No MG's though...

Gene,

From the comments on the first YouTube link it sounds like that is not the Sultan's collection but of one in the USA. Petty spiffy collection. But how many can you drive at once, or even in a month?

But the second link appears to be the Sultan's auto holdings. Crazy.

And if you put your YouTube link within the YouTube marks the image will show up in the post. Use the YouTube insertion button or tool up where the bold, italics and other buttons are.

You're correct...went back and found the right link to his collection. Didn't seem to work when I put it between the youtube brackets though.

Those You Tube links can be a bit funky. I've fixed it for you. The main thing is that you have to put the video code only, between the YouTube tags. Sometimes figuring out the video code can be a challenge.
