This was brilliant and great that Nev could stay off camera. Easy to forget that these are highly personal and not everyone wants to advertise what they have. Being allowed to see the collection but not the owner is perfect as we want to see the cars. Jonny has that difficult knack of not saying too much and allowing the owner to speak. Car caves and barn finds are the best.
Absolutely Super what a collection and enthusiast. Nev has all the detail.. What a brilliant talk through by Nev and Johnny a total pro giving the man the space and time to describe how they all came together.. Some more of this please... Best wishes completing your collection Nev..
Dutchman Willy Mosselman made some incredible turbo kits for Benzes. I remember reading an interview with him in a Dutch car magazine (Autovisie). His filosophy was to keep the compression ratio high and use low turbo pressure. This way the efficiency of the engine was good at the whole rev range and turbo lag was also not an issue. It was a totally different filosophy than what was common back in the 80s.
It's incredible how many classic Mercedes this guy has and parts at his disposal. I didn't want this episode to end. Fantastic video Johnny, you never fail to deliver.
One of my all-time favorite episodes. What an amazing collection. And it's great hearing the stories about him chasing all the special parts. Sometimes that's the most fun part.
Brilliant, great collection.I had a R plate C36 when I was 21, about 16 years ago. Loved it. Was slower than my e36 328i sport but it was such a cool car.
It's not often I'm motivated to watch a video twice, but will watch again on the big screen to take in the full vista of Neville's awesome setup and cars, just a great show 'n' tell video and incredibly informative with it too
Thank you. Glad to have you along to view. The thumbnail cannot do this garage stash enough justice, frustratingly. 4 sheds of retro tuned pornography.
Wow! What an amazing collection. Cannot wait to see the barn find episode too. Fair play to Nev, that’s a hell of a lot of dedication and determination that has built that collection! All I would have wanted to add would be a sorted BMW E30 M3 and a screaming M5 or 5 series Alpina from the same era. Respect for your car cave sir 🙏🏻👍🏻
Love seeing the old American stuff in the UK. Upon being discharged from the army in 69 during the Vietnam era my father bought a 1970 Firebird Formula 400 (Trans Am without the disco) with a 4-speed and all manner of go-fast goodies. I came along in 73 and that was our family car until 80. He bought another Formula in 87, which for the then thirteen year old me was the final nail in the car obsession coffin that I have yet to climb out of.
What a amazing collection lucky fella, my favourite is the Ford zodiac loved them as a kid my next door neighbour had 2 of them and he used to let us play in them pretending to drive them great memories cheers Johnny
Neville is a true and original collector. I know of a few friends who have brought and sold some gems from him. He’s had some collectors go through him! Some of them now residing with others such as Patina collective who have the gold rally 190 or Benz collector sneek now owning the c126 sgs.
I only have one W124, a standard E420 from 1995 with low miles (45,000 km at present) and two owners before me. Rather like Neville's E400 AMG, but totally standard appearance, which makes it quite the sleeper. If you're ever near Paris, you're welcome to take it for a drive. I think you'd like it!
First saw the ‘barnfind’ episode on the 500SEC AMG and now this (although I am subscribed): mental what this man has collected. Over the years I am growing more into these Merc’s, but I still remember the Mosselman ones… they were next level. So much respect for this collection as a result of a passion that started at early age … too many influencers ‘collecting’ cars.
I absolutely love 80s and 90s Mercedes! My Dad had a 190e, a few of my friends Dads also had various Mercs in the 80s and early 90s. So many memories, emotions and nostalgia. All the right feels you should get from classic cars.
Like a kid in a sweet shop 🙂 The Mercs are impressive, but that Zodiac is the most interesting for me. All great, can't wait for the barn-find follow-on!
Mercs have always had that fuddy duddy image for me. Even the pepped up ones. That said, these were the last mercs that were true quality, before the rust prone and dubious quality ones that followed in 2000s, and the common or garden ones sat on pcp in every council st you see nowadays.
As a kid who was in my mid teens in Germany in the mid 80’s all those Mercs are right up my alley. I have some pictures and brochures from a bunch of tuners that were at the 85 Frankfurt Auto show.
Oh, I love my 190E… in fact was out in it today. The ‘Y’ plate 190E is a super early car at production only started in late 1982, obviously LHD as the first UK cars all appear on ‘A’ plates. Only a pity Neville didn’t appear on camera.. however the cars are the stars as always!
Great video and many thanks to Neville, right up my street as I have a 500E with a 6liter engine I build and soon doing a M119 w201 which I am collecting parts for.
Neville, as a Mercedes-Benz owner-driver I must compliment you on your beautiful M-B collection. Also, I drive at the Mercedes-Benz AMG Racing Academy, so, as you know, AMGs are rocket ships on wheels. :) I also have to thank you for bringing back a fun memory for me--the angle shift. I had one in my C230 Kompressor. I've always driven cars manually (clutch or no clutch for better control--and more fun). M-B went to the touch then paddle shift, which is obviously more efficient, yet the angle shift is still my favorite due to that great mechanical feel. Lastly, I must make one friendly correction: you said you had too many M-Bs so reduced from 40 to 20, yet God's truth is one can never have too many M-Bs :)
What a absolutely brilliant collection of cars Neville, Such a knowledgeable person and all the better that your behind the camera. What an episode. Thank you for sharing it.
What a wonderful collection and an absolutely brilliant voice over of each car by Neville. Sounds a proper gent. All served up with a light side of Johnny - perfect viewing.
This is the second of these videos I have watched of Nev's car collection. He sounds like an awesome guy and down to earth. Did I mention that I love his Merc collection?
I'm born in '85 and my father owned an W123 when I was 10, and now for some years, an W126. I love these old school cars along some american muscle cars, because I grew with them and I always loved the design and the impression who gaved to me when I was a kid. Congrats to owner for this very nice collection.
Awesome episode Jonny!!!! Could watch you two talking about these for hours upon hours. Absolutely love these episodes like this more than anything. Much appreciated sir!
Awesome Jonny! Reminds me of drooling over Fast Lane and Performance Car magazines as a teenager! these 80's 90's Mercs are hot property right now and deserve the attention.
What a remarkable collection. Serious shed envy here and a treasure trove of parts too. Last year I had the pleasure of reviewing a very tidy 1990 Ascot Grey 190E 2.0 auto. I can see why these cars commanded a premium back in the day as they feel.way more substantial than most 80's designed cars. In fact I always forget that these go back 40 years and often think of them being more of an early 90's car
Love all these vids. Always enjoyed Jonny Smith since Fifth Gear. Keep up the amazing work, bringing these amazing machines from the past back to life.
I'm a recent subscriber and a huge fan of the channel now and have watched so many of your videos in the last month. What a job you have, but what a job you are doing!👍🏻
I've never seen anything like this before. What a collection. The mind boggles at the thought of forty cars like this. Thanks so much for this. I've been looking for something German or Italian and 80's, for a daily driver as I don't do many miles and this has given me a lot of inspiration. For my money, you and Chris Harris are hands down the best motoring presenters around. Basically, I'd watch anything either of you produce. Huge thanks! :)
Love the W124’s. Beautiful. The green Golf reminded me of my black GTI Engineering e I owned in the 90s. Loved that thing! Same body kit too and never saw another one on the road. It had the normal MK2 front lights too
Love the Mercedes, served my apprenticeship in a Merc main dealer in the late 80’s. Love the AMG conversions, mad conversions always loved the black grills etc sinister but so cool 👍
I always find it fascinating when people collect so many of the same(ish) vehicle, I don't really understand it, but it's fantastic to see the passion and commitment to keeping things going
As a kid that grew up on American muscle cars, I was lucky enough to watch my father beat everyone in our area drag racing, and I’m lucky enough to still have him at 70 just selling his 5 second car now, and my love for American muscle grew into my love for Mercedes in my 30 and now into my 40’s, seems that’s a natural progression to start off appreciating American muscle, then growing into a respect for superior engineering
@14:23 Jonny, you held the phone to your ear the wrong way, the key pad should be away from the ear not towards 🤣🤣🤣. re-visited this vid from the Hammer V8 wide body vid
у мужика отличная коллекция, есть вкус и по видимому очень не мало вложил в своё время в них, а особенно их найти и сохранять в отличном состоянии по кузову
Impressive though the scale of this collection is (and enjoyable as it was to see it, so thanks to Johnny and owner), I can’t help but think most the Mercedes would have been far nicer if they were left standard.
Great video. Murdered out Mercs, Love it. Can't help compare them to Jags, I think I prefer these but that just might be because Jags aren't seen much around here. I do hope Neville finds the opportunity to get to Japan and meet those tuners.
I'm 90% sure my uncle owned NAK 14M in the late 2000's. He was in North London and had it for sale in his showroom, I remember they had to completely renew the AC system and it had an intermittent ignition issue. Was a GORGEOUS vehicle 😍
What a legend, this collection and his approach to building them out in a creative but curated fashion… I love the balance of maintaining a known aesthetic… but one that is modified and sort of one-off by nature. Amazing.
Next time your talking to Neville Johnny, thank him from all of us for showing his collection. Sounds like a cracking, grounded guy with a beautiful collection of cars. Another cracking episode Johnny; thank you.
@@jamesbirden2840 Ah, Hi James. I don't know the guy buddy; don't know the first thing about him. I watch a lot of Johnny's videos and take everyone as I find them. Don't know what else to say fella. Best wishes.
OMG Im short for words, simply I love this mysterious man collection ❤❤❤ its so amazing and rare that its actually hard to belive bdw is Nev a grandfather of "Patina collective" collection ??? I think they mentioned something about buying a lot of special MB's from someone in UK ...
Thank you for making this video. Mercedes Benz 190D was the first car, I got to sat in. My uncle had it, originally was a red car, and it was painted silver. It was just lovely, manual transmission, I really love the spare wheel, how they have a plastic sort of tub, which sort of turns and locks up. It had a lovely Pioneer Hi-Fi system, with a remote which would click in on the steering wheel.
One of my neighbour's spent 5 years restoring and rebuilding an AMG Mercedes 560 SEC in a garage outside London. One day I heard this beautiful, "Burble" coming down my road, I looked round and saw his beautiful, fully restored car. I used to love sitting my front room and hearing him fire it up, my wife hated it! Since the introduction of ULEZ he's had to move it back out of London, He said in 3years time it will be 40 yeard old and like, The Terminator" it'll be back!
Just starting my Late Brake Show Binge session and what a epic video kick off with, best era of merc for me without w shadow of a doubt. Totally respect that Nev wanted to stay behind the camera but what a epic collection.
This is the awesome collection of Neville Brown, I don't know why he's not on camera as he's well known in the car world, and many know of the collection.
Amazing cars form the greatest period of automobiles. 80s & 90s 💪🏻! I love that the Auto Fashion & Spirit sticker is, let us say, rather “heavily inspired” by the German Auto Motor & Sport Magazine Logo. ❤ Great tribute - Ihr guter Stern auf allen Straßen! ⭐️ 🇯🇵 🇩🇪 🇬🇧 ⭐️
Wow there's a name I haven't heard for a long time " JANSPEED " what an incredible collection of beautiful car's. I've always loved the look of the Merc 190. Jonny as always you never fail to deliver, these car collections you find are just fantastic and I could watch them for hours on end ❤❤
Thanks Nev! I respect both your taste and privacy, it’s about the cars after all. The graphics nerd in me also likes all those stickers on the slam panels- they’re something else! Love it all!
This was brilliant and great that Nev could stay off camera. Easy to forget that these are highly personal and not everyone wants to advertise what they have. Being allowed to see the collection but not the owner is perfect as we want to see the cars. Jonny has that difficult knack of not saying too much and allowing the owner to speak.

nailed that
Well said, thank you.
Absolutely Super what a collection and enthusiast. Nev has all the detail.. What a brilliant talk through by Nev and Johnny a total pro giving the man the space and time to describe how they all came together.. Some more of this please... Best wishes completing your collection Nev..
achievement goals, thought about @beatsbyesta watching this
More likely the owner is highly dodgy and doesn't want to be seen.
I like the fact that Jonny respects that the owner did not want to be on camera and the video still looks great!
Yes the video still worked very well, I'm glad Nev was happy to talk over the cars while Jonny was on camera. What an incredible collection
Probably a good thing because if I ever saw this dumb shitters Face Id want to slap it for not driving his classics. Clown
he had no other option fucko,
As an owner of a bunch of 80s German cars including a pair of Cosworth‘s, this is one of the most amazing collections I’ve ever seen!❤️
Check out Patina , they are even buying English amg’s
Check out the Patina Collective out of Florida. The rarest of the rare Mercs. Gullwings, Koenig Specials, ABC, BRABUS, Classon, etc
This is why I should have spent my life trying to get rich. Too late now, but hey! I can appreciate this obsessive collection. Seriously impressive.
He’s probably too busy working to have time to drive them
You have to be so rich just to have the space to store them lol.
Dutchman Willy Mosselman made some incredible turbo kits for Benzes. I remember reading an interview with him in a Dutch car magazine (Autovisie). His filosophy was to keep the compression ratio high and use low turbo pressure. This way the efficiency of the engine was good at the whole rev range and turbo lag was also not an issue. It was a totally different filosophy than what was common back in the 80s.
Quite similar to what Saab did then!
As a Mercedes employee I am very happy to see collections like this in the UK
It's incredible how many classic Mercedes this guy has and parts at his disposal. I didn't want this episode to end. Fantastic video Johnny, you never fail to deliver.
One of my all-time favorite episodes. What an amazing collection. And it's great hearing the stories about him chasing all the special parts. Sometimes that's the most fun part.
Agree. For many of Jonny's projects that is his favourite part of the process. It also feels more rewarding ultimately.
The only car enthusiast that dont like manuals thats crazy to me but seems like a top bloke an knows a hell of alot
Brilliant, great collection.I had a R plate C36 when I was 21, about 16 years ago. Loved it. Was slower than my e36 328i sport but it was such a cool car.

Knew this guy in New Zealand back in the mid eighties that had a Formula 400, at which time he had just bought it. I believe he still owns it.

You do realize that all Neville Brown does is make "fake" replicas and harvest parts that owners of genuine pre-merger AMGs like me actually need?
@@jamesbirden2840would you like me to ask if he's got some amg branded tissues you could wipe your tears on?
What a absolutely brilliant collection of cars Neville, Such a knowledgeable person and all the better that your behind the camera. What an episode. Thank you for sharing it.
The owner is a legend. He is also wearing my favourite watch a Tag Monaco ❤
What a wonderful collection and an absolutely brilliant voice over of each car by Neville. Sounds a proper gent. All served up with a light side of Johnny - perfect viewing.
Top car fleet and a top quality cameraman. Well done Neville!
Best. Carcave. Ever. 80’s modified Mercs. Total dream!
Great vid! 😉
Takes me back to being a teen in the 80's and looking for every mag possible with AMG/Brabus/AC Schnitzer/Koenig/Strosek etc.
Super interesting, thank you Neville for contacting Jonny and inviting him round.
The Golf at the end was a total surprise! I had an RE2000 16v and it was stunning. Super quick for its time!
Best era for Mercs IMHO.. 500E, oooohhhhhh. . . Mind you, a W124 estate would do nicely too thanks.

The car collection is obviously wonderful. But that collection of parts had me in a crisis. Love it.
Awesome Jonny! Reminds me of drooling over Fast Lane and Performance Car magazines as a teenager! these 80's 90's Mercs are hot property right now and deserve the attention.
I remember seeing on many episodes of Miami Vice AMG and Brabus Mercedes Benz. That show was always based on Movers and Shakers and Drug King Pins.
You've made me realise I shouldn't have sold my C36 AMG in 2001. I need another one!
What a remarkable collection.
Serious shed envy here and a treasure trove of parts too.
Last year I had the pleasure of reviewing a very tidy 1990 Ascot Grey 190E 2.0 auto. I can see why these cars commanded a premium back in the day as they feel.way more substantial than most 80's designed cars. In fact I always forget that these go back 40 years and often think of them being more of an early 90's car
Wow, I just love these old finds. please keep them coming. There is a future, but the past cars of this era are better, along with music & people.
Great collection and brilliant to see someone who isn't as fussed about providence and happy with replicas and tributes. 👍
Love all these vids. Always enjoyed Jonny Smith since Fifth Gear. Keep up the amazing work, bringing these amazing machines from the past back to life.
I'm a recent subscriber and a huge fan of the channel now and have watched so many of your videos in the last month. What a job you have, but what a job you are doing!👍🏻
The JDM 124 wagon and the red Brabus are stunning. What an astounding collection!!
Great collection. There's something just right about those Sacco designs..
They are classy boxes, right?
That MK2 golf is an absolute gem, love that zender front end. The whole collection oozes cool.
I love a Sunday afternoon video. Thank you Jonny.
I'm emigrating later this year and I've been wondering what car to get. I'm now set on a 124. Thanks for guiding me here.
I've never seen anything like this before. What a collection. The mind boggles at the thought of forty cars like this. Thanks so much for this. I've been looking for something German or Italian and 80's, for a daily driver as I don't do many miles and this has given me a lot of inspiration. For my money, you and Chris Harris are hands down the best motoring presenters around. Basically, I'd watch anything either of you produce. Huge thanks! :)
The Patina Collective out of Miami will blow your mind. Try 300+ of the same ilk.
hello Mike ,check out the patina collective ,if you like these mercs your going to love what they have
What a fantastic collection to own /be custodian off. This is the era of Mercedes-Benz I like. Really like the GTi though.
Love the W124’s. Beautiful. The green Golf reminded me of my black GTI Engineering e I owned in the 90s. Loved that thing! Same body kit too and never saw another one on the road. It had the normal MK2 front lights too
Impressive collection of classic Mercedes from the best era. I'm a huge W201, W124, and W126 enthusiast.
Great Benz Cars there but this White Pontiac Formula 400
Amazing 🎉
Love the Mercedes, served my apprenticeship in a Merc main dealer in the late 80’s. Love the AMG conversions, mad conversions always loved the black grills etc sinister but so cool 👍
Ohhh this is a good one!
Cheers Jonny, always a pleasure!
Great cars. Great guests. Perfect pace. Perfect delivery. Thank you
I had a Mosselman Twin Turbo 124 3 liter 6 -cylinder. According to Mosselman this was the best system they had.
I always find it fascinating when people collect so many of the same(ish) vehicle, I don't really understand it, but it's fantastic to see the passion and commitment to keeping things going

What a great collection. This guy would love my 190e with a M3 V8 shoehorned into it.
Amazing collection! And the way they're stored is very unique. Looks proper, but nothing too fancy

This is absolutely the most amazing garage. I've owned a lot of weird Mercs and this is my heaven.
Videos like this help me explain to the missus why us males hoard things while we can
Great video. Murdered out Mercs, Love it.
Can't help compare them to Jags, I think I prefer these but that just might be because Jags aren't seen much around here.
I do hope Neville finds the opportunity to get to Japan and meet those tuners.
I don't normally drool over these car collections but, there is something about a well sorted out Merc.
When the 80's 90's see this video they will feel like they are at haven ❤️😂, those care are masterpieces ❤️', great video bro
I'm 90% sure my uncle owned NAK 14M in the late 2000's. He was in North London and had it for sale in his showroom, I remember they had to completely renew the AC system and it had an intermittent ignition issue. Was a GORGEOUS vehicle 😍
Respect to Nev! If you don’t want fame that should be respected! Probably just doesn’t want the attention down the pub 😅
We have to respect the owner's wishes.
What a gem of a video, the Stacco era Mercedes are my absolute favourite the 400 & 500E's are my favourites.
That bright red 190E is beautiful! 😊
What a legend, this collection and his approach to building them out in a creative but curated fashion… I love the balance of maintaining a known aesthetic… but one that is modified and sort of one-off by nature. Amazing.
Bloody hell Jonny, thats an automotive stable 😲😲😲
Next time your talking to Neville Johnny, thank him from all of us for showing his collection. Sounds like a cracking, grounded guy with a beautiful collection of cars. Another cracking episode Johnny; thank you.
You couldn't be further away from the truth. Neville Brown is a total prick, well known and disliked within the AMG community.
@@jamesbirden2840 Ah, Hi James. I don't know the guy buddy; don't know the first thing about him. I watch a lot of Johnny's videos and take everyone as I find them. Don't know what else to say fella. Best wishes.

Those spares are a great business on their own. Thank you all involved I love these insights to collectors toy boxes.
One of my neighbour's spent 5 years restoring and rebuilding an AMG Mercedes 560 SEC in a garage outside London. One day I heard this beautiful, "Burble" coming down my road, I looked round and saw his beautiful, fully restored car. I used to love sitting my front room and hearing him fire it up, my wife hated it! Since the introduction of ULEZ he's had to move it back out of London, He said in 3years time it will be 40 yeard old and like, The Terminator" it'll be back!
12:15 the way he talks about his interceptor, he should definitely buy another one! As they say, third time's the charm! 😂
Just starting my Late Brake Show Binge session and what a epic video kick off with, best era of merc for me without w shadow of a doubt. Totally respect that Nev wanted to stay behind the camera but what a epic collection.
A car cave edition with a bonus barn find! Those are the best right ;)
This is the awesome collection of Neville Brown, I don't know why he's not on camera as he's well known in the car world, and many know of the collection.
That red Brabus is fire! ❤🤩🔥
Amazing cars form the greatest period of automobiles. 80s & 90s 💪🏻!
I love that the Auto Fashion & Spirit sticker is, let us say, rather “heavily inspired” by the German Auto Motor & Sport Magazine Logo. ❤
Great tribute - Ihr guter Stern auf allen Straßen!

Oh wow... the car of a Prince you say!?.. One of the most repressive, terrifying and unfair places in the world you say!? How terribly exciting!
Wow there's a name I haven't heard for a long time " JANSPEED " what an incredible collection of beautiful car's.
I've always loved the look of the Merc 190.
Jonny as always you never fail to deliver, these car collections you find are just fantastic and I could watch them for hours on end ❤❤
Had a JANSPEED EXHAUST ON MY MERC 190E BRABUS 2.6 thought it was brilliant with the stickers on the back bumper those were the days
Nev, stop buying all those tuned Merc parts and give the rest of us a chance. Stunning collection only matched by your passion.
I thought Neville was filming until I seen Jonny looking at a weird angle to him.
I love my w124 and W201s. Needs a 2.5 cossa. Need want. Have to have
That red one is just something else
Thanks Nev! I respect both your taste and privacy, it’s about the cars after all.
The graphics nerd in me also likes all those stickers on the slam panels- they’re something else! Love it all!
4:06 that ain't houndstooth. It is simply Mercedes Sportline chequered fabric
Neville Brown is a pedantic boomer who thinks he knows a lot about Mercedes but doesn't. He is not liked within the community....
Wow!!! Absolutely amazing collection. Thank you.
Lmao at Jonny holding the phone the wrong way round, kids lol
Oh my! What a cornucopia of high hp goodness. This fellow is a serious collector. Well done man. Thanks for sharing.
Great Video!!! I have a Daily Driver 1991 560SEC and love it...
