I would say the cars are much more that R250m. For example, there is the only DB2 convertible ever made, an Enzo, F50 & F40 in a row. One of only 500 Maclaren (the proper road version not the race one), 3 x 250GT - 1 of only 3 hardtops by special tuning company (sorry can't remember the name), and the only 250GT convertible LWB still left in the world. There was also a gullwing.......and that's the modern stuff....It's well worth a visit but they change the cars totally around each month so no VW's this month.
HAH! "Eyes like a Sh*t house rat!"
I had no idea of the scale of vehicle that was housed within so naturally asked about any beetles. The attendant just laughed... I had double doses of the wine at the tasting just to compensate for his demeanor.

Thanks a million for the pics Dutch! I really appreciate it!
Good thing I didn't get in. I would have drooled all over the paintwork.

Eben, the wheels are replicas but good quality ones.....the rack is original, the wood slats need sanding and yacht vanish so are off at the moment.
