Yesterday night:

Massive 21's on this lovely W221:

The Brabus D6 (W221) behind the RR Sport:

This morning (the D6 had left, and the Flying Spur is out of the visible range in this shot):

Enjoy...I sure did/am.

himanshugoswami · 22nd February 2007, 20:13

Damn! This guy needs a bigger forecourt!

abdul 65 amg · 23rd February 2007, 00:40

very good pictures.Very astonishing car colllection.The house doesnt suist with the car collection.

aniguchisan · 23rd February 2007, 01:39

The standard cars include 1-2 S Classes (W221 and W220) , a Flying Spur, the CL 65 AMG and the Range Rover Sport.

The Phantom, the Brabus D6 and 21-inched W221 (AMG) were certainly a surprise. The owners are an Indian family...different cars for different members.

The house looks a bit tacky here, but then again, it's quite huge, worth around 3-4 million pounds. Plus, these people deal with cars/showrooms, hence they may not be paying for ALL the cars in the collection.

Ah well, whatever, it sure is eye (and sometimes ear) candy!

While an interesting picture, I'd be hard pressed to call anything by the RR an "exotic"...

Also, not sure how happy I would be if a picture were taken on my private property displaying the registration details of expensive cars.

Shouldn't the mods make the plates unrecognisable? Forums here in the UK have strict rules about this.

aniguchisan · 28th February 2007, 18:17

I wasn't too sure by what term to dub the cars for this thread. Exotics? Exquisites? Ultra-luxuries? Expensives? I stuck with exotic.

As for the number plates, I've acquired permission. They are family friends.

How often would you expect to see a Nero F430 Spider in your neighbour's forecourt?

Not very.

Now, how often would you expect there to be two...in the exact same shade?

Stunning!

(p.s. No qualms about the plates on display)

moralfibre · 18th July 2007, 18:07

aniguchisan, in the first pic the Ferrari has a white plate and in the second pic it has the same regn number with a yellow plate. Any significance?

Nice garage btw

csentil · 18th July 2007, 18:08

whats the one with the sunroof?

Steeroid · 18th July 2007, 18:09

You live next to the Mob?

aniguchisan · 18th July 2007, 18:10

Well spotted. Well, in the UK, all number plates by law must have black lettering/numbering over a white background on the front, and the same on a yellow background for the rear.

This is done for safety and visibility reasons.

The one with a sunroof is a W221 Mercedes-Benz S320 CDI.

The black is an ML320.

Haha, not quite. These people own and run two showrooms, mainly dealing with Mercs.
