  • In this weeks video we explore a collection of incredibly rare vehicles sadly left after the owner passed away. The cars have been left for many years locked up inside the barn now completely covered in dust & cobwebs. The house which is also attached to the property still has everything left by the late owner. The site obviously still owned and watch regularly. Hope you enjoy this weeks video guys 🙂

    Hi Colin,
    As we often notice, a collection of
    vintage cars is the work of a single
    man. When he passes away,these
    unfortunate orphans may sink into oblivion ...
    Let's hope for the vehicles you show us today that after the time
    of dereliction wil come time of
    restoration !!
    I have never seen ,in France, such an "armada" of GRANADA'S, the
    automatic one with its immaculate inside fitted with a phone is a gem !!
    Nice footage as usual.

    8:23 - Fiat 124 Sport Coupe model CC (third series - 1972-1975) ;
    11:17 - Renault 16 (1965 - 1980), this particular model is I think circa 1974 onwards because it has plastic grill, and it is TA model because it is automatic ;
    13:30 - Hotchkiss 864 Vichy from 1937 - gem
    19:20 - Hotchkiss 686 from 1934 (not sure aboout exact model) - gem
    20:52 - Renault 20 (1975-1984)
    26:01 - Hotchkiss grill :)
    Everything else is more-less good known - Granadas, Renault 8 Gordini, etc
    Owner obviously was a Granada / Consul lover.
    Edit - all cars in France have had yellow bulbs from 1937 to 1993, that was the Law

    Wow what a find. I have never seen so many Granada Coupe's before in one place. They would be worth saving and restoring. I found one in a road near me the other day but hadn't seen one for many years before that. So many exciting parts left hanging about too. I hope someone buys it all and makes sure everything is handled well. Would be such a crime to just scrap it all.

    Hello Colin, from Las Vegas NV. I enjoy your barn find car videos as a car lover myself. I know my american cars, but European cars I don't know much about. So seeing these Granadas for the first time, was a real treat for me. Those cars from the 1930's, fully restored, would go for over $100,000 each, easy. I'm guessing from the comments that this is located in France???

So i kept all of those. Sadly all sold now but they made separate earnings to all my sales of the cars. The Granada I remember as a mk1 coupé I could be very wrong but the ones I remember were all 3,2ltrs. Please don’t tell me off if I’m wrong. Love the old car with the oil lamp, strangely a right hand drive compared to the others, loved the Granada wheel door stop when you looked out the upper doorway
