    I cannot even begin to tell you how happy it makes me to see you here in South Africa. I've been subscribed to your channel for years and seeing my awesome city in your videos is just the cherry on top of the cake. Thanks for being the best UA-camr ever.👍

      I really agree and it would make my life so much cooler if I could see you and get some Merch b the exchange rate makes it so expensive nowadays.

    Mclaren F1 is also part of the collection but the owner, yes singular, drives it around so he tends to keep it at home

      Muhammad Bhyat that's one of the most awesome things I've heard in a while; not having your mclaren f1 in a museum because you want to drive it! Exactly how it should be :D

Even weirder, I've lived here my whole life and you've already been to places I've never seen or heard, but I'm soo glad you're here because I get to see more of the car culture in my own city. And I'm definitely going to visit these places soon..

      Yeah,my mum once,got sent to work for a company,in cape town i think,which had one of its branch,in mauritius,anyways,her hotel was a 5 min walk to her work place,and her boss had made sure to get her a taxi to and back,as it was so dangerous, and told me,that in some places,you couldn't just have your arm with jewelry,chilling outside your car,specially at traffic lights,as you'd it it stolen there and then...

    *Sam, the reason that Cape Town/South Africa is 'obsessed' with Cobra's, is because South Africa is where production of Superformance (A licensed manufacturer of continuation Shelby Cobra's, Shelby Daytona's and Ford GT40's, as well as a Corvette Gran Sport continuation) cars is based out of (Port Elizabeth to be specific). In terms of overall build, Superformance creates the most authentic and better quality car, and is a licensed maker/distributor of Shelby cars, unlike Backdraft Racing, who isn't allowed to use any Shelby naming or badging on their cars.*
    South Africa was also home to a very successful racing driver and Superformance development driver, Bob Olthoff. His son Dennis, is also quite the skilled driver, and operates the family Superformance dealership in North Carolina.*

    It's said the the collection is the biggest private car collection in the Southern Hemisphere. What you see at the Museum is probably 30% of the total collection. A lot of the cars are driven as well, if you look at the cars, those that have license disks on the windows are road legal registered and driven from time to time

    Just one quick question though, was there a burgundy B GT there? (I am on the hunt for one)

Also thanks much for showing love for the Porsches.Here in the states, we're led to believe nowhere else is as car crazy as America is and the internet has shown those who believe that, are horribly misled.Also the color of that DB11 is perfect and I'm sure would meet with Tim's approval :-)
