Man explores the UK's biggest barn find collection of 175 extremely rare cars in London

The Bearded Explorer is back again, this time giving us a tour of an incredible collection of abandoned cars in London.

This warehouse is home to 175 cars and – as you can see from the clip above – some of them are quite rare.

Some of these cars are beyond repair but, by contrast, other vehicles here are in good condition.

The Bearded Explorer, a YouTuber who specializes in barn finds, discovered this abandoned warehouse in London.

The warehouse is home to around 175 vintage vehicles, some of which are potentially worth a significant amount of money.

What’s in this London warehouse?

So many of these vehicles have huge potential.

There are several classic Mercedes and BMW cars, several Land Rovers and Minis, British icons made by MG and Triumph, and a few Fiats for good measure.

There’s also a a Nissan 300ZX, one of the most popular Japanese classics, but this one is unfortunately in dire condition.

Probably not as bad as the one that spent a decade underwater, but still pretty bad.

The most valuable vehicles here

There are a few different BMW 2002s.

This is also a rare and valuable car, and it’s one of those rare situations where the owner can actually drive the car, and it doesn’t really hurt its evaluation.

There’s a guy in Sweden who fitted a BMW E46 engine in his 2002, and he actually drives it across Europe to go to car events.

We also spotted several classic Mercedes models, an Italian Fiat 500, a couple of vintage Volkswagen Golf and Land Rover vehicles.

One thing we should point out is that – in time – all of these vehicles will be restored and sold.

As reported by London Barn Finds, some of these cars are already about to be sold to their new respective owners.
