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.
The ramshackled site is in a chaotic state. Many of the cars and vans are covered in dirt, some are in a very poor condition and others are partly buried under vegetation. They include classic British vehicles but also American ones, such as a Cadillac thought to have been previously owned by two unnamed celebrities.
As well as cars, there will be vans, tractors, signs and even a boat up for sale during an auction that could have 700 to 800 lots. Finley Hutchings, of Tewkesbury Auction Centre, said: 'It's very difficult to say how much it will raise. It all depends on the day.
