Mr. W16's Garage - Bugatti, Lamborghinis, Bentleys, Rolls', Ferraris, Porsches!

We've had discussion about his garage all over the place, its high time this garage had a well documented thread of its own. Where we can account his cars without being hindered by other topic and neither hindering other topics.

I've chosen this name for the thread so that we can easily identify the person and at the same time not disclose his personal or official details by taking abbreviations of his name or his group name if he prefers to remain discreet.

I hope this thread wont be a place to debate about who's got the best garage and who's not. The purpose of this thread is just to account this person's enviable collection of automobiles.

From what I can gather, his garage currently constitutes of:
  • 01 x Bugatti Veyron
  • 18 x Bentleys
  • 04 x Rolls Royces
  • 06 x Lamborghinis (2 to be delivered)
  • 02 x Ferraris
  • 02 x Aston Martins
  • 08 x Porsches
  • 19 x Mercedes Benzs
  • 16 x BMWs
  • 22 x Audis
  • 05 x Jaguars
  • 03 x Range Rovers
These are all the figures I summed up from ravelsnip@gmail's and ShortShifter's posts. Hope they can elaborate more in detail

And i am shocked to see the count above. 15+ Bentleys, Mercs, Audis and BMWs. Do we have any pictures of these as well?

This is a list I received long time ago from some of the sources and is a consolidated list of all the details about W16's Garage. This is a pretty old one and not been updated for a long time. Hope it add's some value to the thread too

It's funny you say that, apparently he has to keep shifting cars to different houses as there isn't enough space at his primary residence .

Amazing!

How many people get to drive these cars (between how many people are these cars shared?)

18 Bentleys! Mind boggles.

Son, daughter, business partner . The garage is actually an amalgamation of two people . Mr. W16 takes the limelight but there is another person who contributes to the collection .

Now this is all the more shocking. At one point in time he had 23 Bentley GTs???

I don't want to be a spoilsport here, but i wonder what is the point in having so many cars? And we are not talking about normal everyday cars here. I mean how mad a car fanatic can you be?

Are there any vacancies for the drivers job with him????

Re: Mr. W16's Garage - Bugatti, Lamborghinis, Bentleys, Rolls', Ferraris, Porsches!

That's a crazy amount of money to be put in cars. Based on traveloholic's file the depreciation on these cars alone would be in the range of 40-50 crores a year. Mind boggling - W16 is truly a car fanatic!

In another forum I had read about a Hyderabad baron with 10 Bentleys and 5 RRs, guessing it is the same gentleman?

Who wouldn't want to keep a Bugatti Veyron in his living room when he has owned one

I think this thread is going to be filled with questions of who the person is etc. I think if there is a news article mentioning him with at least one of his cars the name can be revealed here and you can continue discussing the rest of his cars.

What I have heard is that this person has 23 odd Bentleys and not 18.
