We're all sat here, utterly gobsmacked! That is the Ultimate Barn Find. That Nardi Silver Ray alone - unique! You know, like if you'd found a load of lost masterpieces stored from WW2, these incredible machines need to be saved for the nation! Beaulieu? Someone needs to rescue these and get them out there for the world to enjoy again. What a video!! Well done BE Team!

You'll never top that find, mate! It should be a crime to abandon those cars.

You’d think it was an abandoned museum with all those old rare cars. The history alone says everything. One of my favourite car videos. Thanks guys

I don't believe these cars were abandoned but rather forgotten when the owner ran out of time and had no one to leave them to who cared.

Seriously impressive find this week. Well done, Colin. The silver sports car at the 20 minute mark appears to be a late 1930s Alfa Romeo 6c (possibly a 2300 MM) and is megabucks. The two early Bentleys that were side by side look like 1920s 3 Litre models and I know someone who just paid £250,000 for one. I think the red Frazer Nash is an Arnott body car, so one of two sounds right. I appreciate that you delayed showing this and the collection is safe. I hope it can come to market one day and these important cars can see the light of day again.

Most of the tires are pumped up a lot of the cars look rather clean for being an abandoned building. My best guess is that this is storage for a person’s collection.

It's mighty strange that those high-value cars are simply left without any form of Security. My biggest worry - is vandalism / arson. It could easily happen, and somebody needs to take responsibility for all of that valuable history. I am thinking that this is a Deceased Estate, with nobody caring like the true Owner did!

The Man that Owned the Shop probably never told anyone where it was, Except the Workers, when He died the family's gave up trying...Cheers!

Incredible find!! Beyond incredible!! I doubt even you realise what you’ve found there! Jaw dropping! Best barn find or exploration video ever!

Any alarms or cctv ? Strange, these classic cars were left here 🤔 they need to go to a motor museum before they rot completely

Thank you for sharing this and giving us the opportunity to see these beautiful machines. This place seriously needs guarding until they are moved or secured up correctly before any wrong ones work out where this place is (now that’s it’s all over the internet) if they are stolen or the place ends up burnt down, that’s a lot of history gone. Please tell us you have tried to find whoever owns this place to advise they fully secure it 🙏

You should have a sensible word with someone like Ian Tyrell…. He might have the clout to save this stuff, even restore some of it

That is the nardi silver ray which is now owned by a guy who probably owns all of those cars his name is Julian majzub he was reported to own since 2013

This collection belongs to Julian Majzub I believe, at least the Silver Ray does, it’s one of one

Now I'm curious and really want to know who Mr M is! But this isn't the place to say or even give hints.

I can't believe you found this this is absolutely amazing!!!!

I found a very similar barn full of amazing but more neglected cars in Brazil a few years ago. We did a shot every time you said spider. It's going to take us some time to get all the way through. 😎

Hi Guys what an absolute GEM of a find.Those cars are amazing and really need to be saved and some put in a museum. The others restored and driven,value must be totally off the scale. Your excitement and joy in seeing those cars was great to listen too,great commentary Colin and I agree you are never going to beat this video.Still looking forward to next weeks.Take care.😀

That is indeed a BMW 503. They only built 274 coupes in total (and 139 convertibles), so it's a rare car already and who knows how many exist in RHD? Couple of £100k right there. The Bristol early on is also BMW-based and Frazer Nash was an importer of BMWs to the UK, subsequently often badged Frazer Nash-BMW.

Definatly looks like a silver ray, apparently Julian majzub brought it to the UK, might be worth dropping him an email to get more info

The Nardi Silver Ray sitting in a place like that is as stunning as it is very sad to see. Absolutely beautiful car.

A wonderful and amazing explore as ever Colin - thank you. With very little research, I found who these cars belonged to and so where they are located and if I can do this, anyone can. Please do whatever it takes to protect these rare and unique cars from the inevitable vandalism which will follow.

I do not think they are forgotten, some of engines being worked on are too clean , I think the collector is probably quite old and still tinkers with his one of kind collection collection . Nardi silver ray was reportedly sold to a 'well known' British collector . I hope nobody with less scruples than yourselves become aware of the location of such a wonderful collection that obviously lacks security.

The tiny metallic-blue Racing Car is ( I think) a Vanwall from the 1960s. I'm certain that Dinky Toys modelled this car way back then. What an interesting place, and many questions are left unanswered. Why all of the Spanners on the floor? Somebody left in a hurry.

Nardi Silver Ray "In 2012, the car was later transported to New Jersey and carefully placed within a shipping container, while keeping its ultimate European destination undisclosed."

Oh my god how beautiful are these cars, hope these can be saved xx

Your best find EVER,mate!and there's Stokzie getting excited over an old Capri,lol.

It would be interesting to find the current owner of this barn. He might not know about it. However , to break in such a place without permission of the current owner is not really a good example to others. 😮😮😮

What an amazing bunch of vintage cars. They are absolutely beautiful. This was a great find, thank you for sharing. ❤

The red Fraser nash is very clean and shiny…. Doesn’t look like it’s been there long!

Im so glad how respectful you are with them cars i really hope they get saved😢

The Nardi Silver Ray is UNIQUE.

Does the name Julian Mazjub fit into this story ? He's the last known owner of the Nardi Silver Ray according to reports. He also has a huge car collection.You should have checked to see if it had the Plymouth V8 engine or was being reunited with the original V12 Alfa Romeo engine that the chassis is rumoured to have been built with. Apparently Mr Mazjub bought the engine back in the late 90's from or thru Simon Kidston as Nardi's daughter still had in in her basement. Seriously rare and extensively history'd car !

Yes,this is simply a storage for some of his extra cars.I saw a Brabham in there that he owned,and obviously still does. I think we've been part of a marketing scam.

I’d be very surprised if that place really is abandoned, not been used for a while perhaps ,but surely someone must be aware/own those cars especially with the rarity and value of them ?

Agreed. Some other people are talking in the background, at the begionning of the video (while looping around the building). This is all scripted.... Nevertheless... Here is that Nardi Silver Ray !

Some body owns them who's kidding who!!

Amazing finds just cant believe treasures like this are just sitting in barns. I found that Julian Majzub owned a Silver Ray up to 2013 in the UK.

Someone already mentioned Julian Majzub below as the owner of the Nardi, as of 2013. (It would also tie in with the jigsaws in Arabic, as he is Iranian). I think he also has connections with VSCC, which some of these cars are showing a plaque. Why on earth these are in thus state is surprising . He is alive and well.

and if he is alive and well, he probably won't be that happy that someone has accessed his workshop and filmed his cars! As someone else wrote... they don't look abandoned, they are far too clean. My car looks dustier than some of these after a winter in the garage.

Your channel is getting better and better mate ❤

What a stunning discovery. Along with many of your finds I find it amazing that family members don't seem to know about these abandoned places.

I love watching your videos . They give me a temporary escape from all of the bs that’s going on in the world today !!!!

Incredible find .. enjoyed seeing these cars ! Amazing that the lights worked. !! Funny how you mention the spider webs on each car …. LOL 😂 😊❤

Wow...what an amazing place 😮. In the photo, The lady in the drivers seat looks like Patricia phoenix who plays Elsie Tanner in coronation Street 😊.keep up with the fabulous vlogs. It's the highlight of my weekend 😊.

Abandoned barn find? cars with barely any birdshit, or dust, barn and cars very clean?, I doubt it.. more than likely, owner allowed this shoot to go ahead with his blessings.. 🙂🙂

The red car was build by Horace A Richards in 1952 formula 2 racing car,he originated from Smethwick where he built the car based on a Riley if that helps

Doesn't really look abandoned, other than a bit of roof insulation fallen it all looks pretty tidy. My garage has more dust than this shed

What a phenomenal find that is, an unbelievable amount of value in those cars, such a shame they’ve been left

Wow! My jaw is on the floor! The race car at 12.17 is a Brabham BT21, 1966 and probably has some serious racing pedigree. I'd love to know the backstory and what happens with all these beautiful cars. What a find!

I’ve only ever heard of the nardi once before and I’m sure it’s that rare, that people have actually been looking for it

Cheers from Romania! Awesome find! Hard to explain in words...omg😮

I have watched endless barn finds, storage units with lots of vehicles found ... but ... this is the BEST I have ever seen for variety, age, rarity, condition etc of vehicles. some looked more clean than others, I wonder if someone works on some of those cars every now and then. Looking at the outside doors you found looks like the steel plate there had been a tempted forced entry ... those stinging nettles are a great guard as you found out. Really good explore ... thoroughly enjoyed it, thanks.

18:14 this is a 1 of 2 Frazer Nash Continental. Google shows it at Silverstone in 2009. It doesn't appear that it has sat that long in this shed.

Hiya Colin. This must be the most amazing auto find you have ever filmed. Truly mind blowing. Thankyou.

Wow I absolutely love theses old Classic Cars. What a wonderful find.

Hi Colin what a fantastic video wow those cars are mega rare the Red Alfa Romeo is a Giuletta sprint speciale, the yellow Lancia is an Aurelia B20 GT, and the other Lancia is a Flaminna Zagato sport, what an amazing collection I hope they are saved ! Thanks for all your great videos mate 🙂

I couldn’t do this, too much of the little bits of memorabilia would go home with me 😂

I think the yello car at the end is a lancia arelia. The race car looks like a lotus 72. Great vid mate.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned it Colin, but those vintage cars with the brass date plaque are registered as Veteran Car Club vehicles hence the V.C.C

This looks like a setup. No one leaves this amount and caliber of cars a abandoned. There would be heirs all over this. 14:16 or did this collection belong to a Sheik? EDIT. I’m not too far off… the Nardi Silver Ray was last known to be owned by classic car collector Julian Mazjub as of 2013. His father was a top guy with the Shah of Iran.

I recognise some of these cars and number plates. I believe they were in a museum and must be temporary storage for some reason.

Truly breathtaking is an understatement, that’s definitely the one-off Nardi Silver Ray, unique and priceless. What an incredible discovery that collection is!

❤❤ heya colin... I would say that somewhere on this plant there are people watching this and wondering where there prized classic car went to.... it left home to be restored came to this place and never left.... that nardia tho man wat a car!!.... but some of the rarest cars on our planet and there they are.... the people who just left this place are really horrible... it's a heartbreaking sight to see :(:( :(:( thank you to you for once again showing us another amazing find.... we love you and your work xxx :);) ❤

What a unbelievable, amazing collection hopefully all of these amazing classic vehicles could be saved

Oh wow, this cars should be in a museum, hope you didn’t get stung too much. Great video.

Not a single flat tire... Very strange for "abandoned" cars... What would be interesting is to look for chassis-numbers or evidences on the Nardi Silver Ray, to find out if it is made of parts of the lost/missing Alpha Romeo 412 Spider Vignale... Really incredible, that such a rarity (only one prototype made) is let to rot...

That's some collection colin amazing discovery let's hope they all get saved one day.

Wow, what a great find & video, keep up the great work.

Omg Colin …you’ve stumbled on the Holy Grail find that’s worth multi millions … incredible

Not just your best finds but for me the best finds ever. Thank you

Wow!! I do remember years ago going to a farm type place where the guy restored old cars and it was a lot like this place.

Pretty sure thats a 63-64 Lotus indy car or a replica done well. Along with some early indy cars later in the vid. That is definitely the Nardi... All vehicles are rare lol This is a very good top pocket find man! Get yourself Jay Leno and ask for a finders fee of 10%-20% and youll come out well. These have been sitting since late 2000s-early 2010s most likely, just totally untouched. Do get on it mate. These need to leave here or the whole place maintained as a museum. Just wow! Awesome job man!🤘🤘

How, just how? Surely more than one person knew of this collection before it got abandoned. It baffles me how everyone involved could just forget about them.

What an amazing find Colin, but honestly it makes me sick how people can just walk away from their automobiles like this. The owner has probably passed away and their family members probably have no interest in the barn. Not knowing what the contents is in the barn.

What a wicked find, those Bentleys were beautiful.

An article I just found online about the Nardi says...' It was finally re-discovered, returned to running condition and is now in the hands of Julian Majzub in the U.K. as reported in the Automobile magazine of September 13 and Classic and Sportscar magazine, August 2013." I think you just found it!! It would also possibly explain the items you found with the Arabic writing.

I think you have an obligation to contact someone who can save these cars before the roof goes.

Do a land registry search of the address for £3, find out who owns the building, get in touch and start the ball rolling to get these cars saved.

Hi Colin. Hope your doing well. That video absolutely blew me away. Those are the most beautiful cars ever. I hope they can get all of them back to running condition. I loved the video. Sorry i wasn't able to donate this week. Hopefully next week. Stay safe and take care.
