Un-be-frikking-lievable collection!

I'd lose the Chavved up bentley, SLR and Cayenne, but the rest is stunning.

Love the 250/288/599 GTO collection, though like Mr Evans, its a Series 2 250 GTO which (IMO) isn't as beautiful as the S1.

I'm really nitpicking though!

Yes, you really are laugh, anyone care to put a guestimate on the collections worth?

In head calculation and absolute no research, id say £12m* or there abouts.

The 250GTO is worth more than £12m on it's own.

As I suspected, ok then, £8m excluding the GTO.

The car in the pictures has S1 bodywork . . . . . the true nit picking would be that it didnt leave the factory like that smile

Thing is though, cars (no matter how impressive the collection) are cheap for the visual thump they offer.

ALL of those cars no doubt look incredible, and its visually amazing. But tthe value of the collection still won't get you one of the better pads in some of the private estates in Surrey, let alone the best bit of London...

The 250GTO in Mo's collection is a recreation. That's what he mentioned I believe. Not sure what they are valued at. All dependent on the donor car/build detail I would imagine.

On the whole a very nice collection indeed. A few questionable choices but the majority of Mo's collection is spot on. A garage that consists purely of modern cars that are readily available to those with lots of coins doesn't stir the soul. This however, is a very decent mix of the modern and the classic. He definitely needs to make room for a Zonda in there.

Although it's not my favourite car in the world, the Cobra stands out the most and looks stunningly purposeful. It's even got the $250 silver ink upgrade from old man Shelby! wink

Not a shabby collection!

The Ford is a Short Course truck. I've tried to get some info but the RC version gets the most hits.

If you check out the OP's link, everyone asks where's the Zonda, his son-in-law then posts a pic of a White Zonda Cinque motorbike, 1 of 5 made. Shape isn't too dissimilar to that quoted above.

Would of thought a orginial genuine cobra signed by carrol shelby would be worth a huge amount more than that, some of the replica's are getting near that!
http://www.classiccarsforsale.co.uk/classic-car-fo... theres some prices at the bottom, and i bet the one in question is worth more than them!

Sorry just threw a number out there, I have absolutely no idea what any Cobras are worth - runs to hide. Restrictive work internet doesn't make it easy to find out either.
