By god he's got some hopeless tastes in automotive vee-hickles.
Collecting Harleys I can understand, but; "I've got 6 or 10 ten of these, never even run"... why on earth collect 10 of the things to never run?0 -
I thought the same and the choice of cars a but odd. Love that set up and fill it with bikes0

All those bikes looked a bit too heavy to pedal....

My guess is as investments. Anniversary editions of Harleys can be sold in the states a decade or 2 later for a much higher cost than the original asking price, and they are always in demand!
Cool garage though!0 -

Wow, that was amazing. I wonder why the americans ahve a different attitude to money than we do. I cant imagine a millionaire over here sharing his enjoyment with an audience.The dissenter is every human being at those moments of his life when he resigns
momentarily from the herd and thinks for himself.0 -

You need only to look in the mirror, and you will see.0 -

Americans worship success, whereas we begrudge it, because, essentially we're still a nation of angry little serfs.0 -
Nah. Crap.
Best garage in the world was my parent's garage when I was a teenager. It had a dart board and crappy radio cassette thing, and was usable post pub for a few beers, a few games of darts, some music, and teenage bloke conversation about women. It was brilliant.
That thing's just an example of what happens when you swap a lot of money for goods and services.Mangeur0 -
I once did a job for a Russian guy who had a collection of cars and bikes worth well in excess of £50,000,000 and had built his own museum around them. It was based in Riga, Latvia.
He had Stalins car amongst so many others. It was an amazing time walking around looking at them, ill try and find out some pics and post them later.Living MY dream.0 -
Not true. The Americans are indolent and don't consider how money is procured. Odd, then their rabid approach to some crimes. We are more thoughtful and have some measure of discretion. And almost without exception riches in the UK are the result of less than decent ethical behaviour. Take our biggest industry, selling clothes, and imagine what it's like to work in Bangladesh. Or think of the banking industry.....dynamicbrick wrote:Americans worship success, whereas we begrudge it, because, essentially we're still a nation of angry little serfs.0 -

I'd take one of the Lancia Flaminia Supersports off their hands.team47b wrote:

LOL, that is great! Always entertaining seeing your intellect at work.0 -
Least he uses the Veyron. I can't stand people who buy cars like that and lay 'em up. I can understand never in the rain etc etc but the bloody things were built to be driven.
In terms of petrol heads I reckon Jay Leno takes some beating.The only disability in life is a poor attitude.0 -

Meh, shiny floors and dry engines.
No fully duplicated sets in metric, BA, BSF and Whitworth. No machine tools, swarf, oil or the smell of burning flux. These are just baubles in the attic unless there's something happening to them.0
