An abandoned warehouse in London is hiding a vast collection of classic cars.
The warehouse is home to around 175 vintage vehicles, some of which are potentially worth a significant amount of money.
Based on the amount of dust covering the cars, it’s fair to assume they haven’t been touched in decades.

Some of these vehicles are what you’d call luxury cars, while others are just everyday vehicles, but they all have one thing in common – their age.
Every car you see here is at least 40 or 50 years old, which indicates they’ve been sitting here for decades, and the thick layers of dust confirm that.
The cars hidden in the London warehouse
Most of the cars here are potentially very valuable once restored.
There are several classic Mercedes and BMW cars, several Land Rovers and Minis, British icons made by MG and Triumph, and then also a few Fiats.
There’s also a sought after Japanese classic, the Nissan 300ZX, which looks beyond repair.
Probably not as bad as the one that spent a decade underwater, but still pretty bad.
The most valuable cars here
The video was shared to YouTube by TFJJ, and the guy that runs the channel says the cars will eventually be sold, once restored, by an London Barn Finds.
This brings us on to big question, what are the most valuable cars here?
There several Porsche 911s, and those are definitely worth a lot.
In fact, you could probably get a good chunk of cash even if you sold them in the condition they were found.
Then there’s the BMW 2002, or 2002s, plural, because there’s more than one.
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.
