EXCLUSIVESecret Aladdin's cave of 180 classic cars hidden in the English countryside for years is uncovered - and could now fetch eccentric owner a fortune

PUBLISHED: 20:04 EDT, 17 April 2025

A massive collection of old vehicles, that has been hidden in the English countryside for years, has been revealed ahead of them being sold at auction.

The anonymous owner has amassed more than 180 vehicles, some of which are classic cars, in two barns and on land outside them in South Gloucestershire.

Although some - such as a 1960s Aston Martin and a Jaguar with the registration '3 TV' - could sell for tens of thousands of pounds, others may be worth very little.
