Discovering what's actually inside the world's top car garage will blow your mind

The world’s top garage, called Carage, is located in Switzerland and it is home to an extremely large and valuable collection of cars.

There’s another one, in Spain, but this one takes the crown.

Among other things, it has one of the largest collections of Koenigsegg cars in the world.

The inevitable question that will spring to mind is, who owns all of these cars?

The answer – for once – is a bit more nuanced than usual.

Carage is a garage for the mega-rich

Carage is essentially like a vault, a bank, a safety deposit box, for collectors.

It was created for people who own expensive cars and prefer to delegate the most annoying part of ownership – which is maintenance – to professionals.

In a way, this is roughly the same as watch collectors storing their most valuable pieces in a bank.

“With CARAGE, your precious car is in the best possible hands. At our exclusive in-house workshop, our experienced service team offers a full range of maintenance and repair services for your luxury vehicle,” this is what they say on their website.

We should also point out that Carage also gives collectors the option to sell (or buy) cars.

One of the largest car collections in the world

It is genuinely very difficult to find comparable car collections.

Jay Leno’s garage, which comprises over 280 vehicles (but no Ferrari), is perhaps comparable.

The 300+ car collection of Romanian billionaire Ion Tiriac is also worth mentioning, as is the car collection of the Sultan of Brunei (he’s selling his LM002, by the way) or the Rainbow Sheikh (below).

But this collection is different, because it comprises so many cars that are worth well over seven figures.

The thing is, in recent years, it has become clear to several wealthy people that putting your money in the bank isn’t exactly useful.

Inflation eats it away, and there’s nothing particularly exciting about dollar bills per se.

For that reason, we’ve seen a growing trend by which the rich park their money – no pun intended – in cars.

Well, why not?

It makes sense, considering buying certain limited-edition cars at retail is becoming nigh on impossible, and the market value goes up wildly almost on a yearly basis.
