that collection/(real collection but hoax story) is completely different to this collection

My guess is that most of those cars shown in the pictures are worth a lot of money. Collectors would be drooling at the sight of these pics!!

That is a Heinkel and the light blue one beside it is probably a BMW Isetta or maybe an ISO. When I was a kid I had cousins drive from Edinburgh, Scotland to London in one and then from there to the south coast with me on the back shelf!!!! My brother always wanted a Messerschmidt, never got one though but there is a very nice one in Oz complete with a german cross on it and obviously painted red, I saw it some years ago at a car show in Brissie.

That red Messerschmidt (?) is owned by an old family friend in Bris. He has a mad vehicle collection, even a dc3 on a bus chassis set up as a cool retro camper.

The number plate on one of the trucks is COL, so that could be Cologne.

Hey Matt, years ago in London I saw a Messerschmidt customised to look like an aircraft. It was extended and painted camouflage and the cockpit cover(?) was modified and it even had a rudder and tailplane plus it was based on the four wheeled version - I think they were called Tigers or something like that and they originally had a top speed of 90 MPH!!!
