There’s a village in Cheshire, UK, where nearly every car you’ll see is a supercar, including Lamborghinis, Ferraris, and Bugattis.
This place is a supercar spotter’s dream and has also become the northern hotspot for a dedicated band of motor enthusiasts.
The village of Alderley Edge in Cheshire is also home to many sports cars and rare vintage cars worth millions.

Alderley Edge supercar village
Dubbed the “Knightsbridge of the north,” the Alderley Edge village sits in Cheshire’s Golden Triangle.
In 2021, the average cost of a house in the village was almost £800,000 (almost $1,035,000).
As you can expect, most of the village residents are people who can easily afford a performance car or two.
It has also been a hotspot for car spotting for years now.
The spotters don’t bother getting their cameras out for the Bentleys or Rolls-Royces anymore because they are so common around here.
Car spotting
Jordan Belsham has been a car spotter for years now, and according to him, he was one of the first to spot Alderley Edge as a hub of performance cars.
He also has an Instagram page called supercarsinmanchester_, where he posts photos of all the stunning exotic cars that he sees in the village.
“I love it. I love the fact you can come out here and don’t know what you’re going to get – you could end up seeing the best car in the world,” says Belsham.
“London is still better in terms of high-value cars, but here it’s the lazy form of car spotting – because the cars literally come to you,” he added.
It reminds us of another unique town in California where people park airplanes in front of their houses instead of cars.
However, it seems not all residents of the village welcome the spotters with open arms.
The spotters based themselves at the Wilmslow end of London Road after residents at the other end of the village complained that their presence encouraged motorists to drive fast and rev their vehicles.
So, would you like to live in a village full of luxury performance cars?
