Man reveals how he bought an $8.5 million car collection and the ultimate gearhead’s home

This man has an $8.5 million car collection and a house that any gearhead would love to live in.

Mark McCann runs a successful engineering business which has set him up very nicely.

He started off from humble beginnings, but now lives in a mansion with a race track.

How did he get to this point?

The $8.5 million car haul you never knew you needed

Growing up, Mark was inspired by his dad’s love of motorbikes and wanted to get into vehicles himself.

His first step into entrepreneurship came when he began making and selling helmet screws for BMX riders.

As time went by, he began selling more stuff including hardware items and wholesale goods.

Eventually he expanded out into motorcross parts and set up FRO Systems.

It became a global brand and attracted the attention of professional athletes.

Mark said: “We’ve travelled all over the world with [the brand], met amazing people, amazing athletes, who I’m friends with for life.”

Fast forward to the present day, and he lives in an amazing house in Redditch, UK with his wife and daughter.

His YouTube channel has amassed a huge fanbase of 400,000 subscribers – and just his main channel.

What cars does he have in his enviable collection?

In his most recent vlog, Mark indicated that he was filming a vlog to give fans a run-through of his car collection.

Whilst we wait with bated breath for that to drop, let’s revisit what we know so far about his vehicles.

As far as UK car collections go, it’s not as numerous as the one featured in the embedded video, but it’s still extremely impressive.

His fleet of vehicles is eye-watering, and contains cars like the Ford Sport KAs and the Ford RS 200s, each worth around $353,085.

In a 2023 video, he showed some of his other purchases including cheaper additions like a $6,305 Renault 5 GT Turbo.

Some of the vehicles are much bolder, like the $31,527 Polaris Race Buggy.

And you had better believe that buggy gets a lot of use out on his home-made race track, although Mark admitted that his wife wasn’t so keen on it.

He said: “I built this one specifically to backflip. Jayne isn’t too keen on that, especially now we have [Our daughter].

“But I can two wheel this one.”

This is a collection for the ages – there’s even a tank on the grounds of his house!

That $50,000 tank is road legal by the way, it just needs insurance.

At the time of the video being filmed, Mark had paid $4,607,883 for 54 vehicles.

In the two years since, it reached the heights of $8.5 million.

We can’t wait to see an updated collection video.

It’ll likely contain his Lamborghini Revuelto, which he struggled to get insurance on.

Big collections like this are always a treat to see.

Supercar Blondie paid a visit to a $100,000,000 collection which is unlike anything you’ve seen.
