A mystery bunker packed with classic cars from Bristol Cars has left enthusiasts wondering who left millions worth underground.
YouTuber Lost Adventures checked out the underground location five years ago, and it showcased a wide array of cars, including some classics and even race cars.
Making the location even cooler was that it contained a lot of Bristol Cars that were meant to go to auction in 2020, before the Covid-19 pandemic hit and changed plans.
It means there is a potential small fortune of cars just sitting here, waiting for someone to rescue them.

The Bristol cars are the highlight of the mystery bunker
The main feature of the bunker was the array of Bristol cars that were sitting around the garage.
For context, Bristol was a British car company that produced cars from 1945 to 2020.
Its latter years were plagued by financial troubles, although it may make a return in 2026 as a contemporary coachbuilder.
The company wound up in March 2020, but it appears some of the cars have been left to gather dust in this garage.
It turns out these cars have been left in a car park that formerly belonged to the British manufacturer.
The pandemic prevented the cars from being sold when they should have been in 2020.
A rare prototype is another of the hidden classic cars
There are some truly remarkable cars in this underground bunker.
One is a prototype for the Bristol Fighter.
Built from 2004 to 2011, it had a 525hp 8.0-liter V10 under the hood.
Bristol never managed to put the car into full production, and it is said that between nine and 14 of them were built.
Other cars lurk in the shadows, such as a Bristol Bullet 409 Speedster prototype from the 1960s.
There are a handful of other cars hiding amongst the Britols as well.
We can see a Bentley from the 2000s, which may have belonged to one of the employees who used to work at the factory.
It’s not clear what has happened to these cars since the footage was filmed.
But it’s incredible to see parts of Bristol’s past simply lurking in the darkness.
