How driving fanatic’s 170 dust-covered classic cars worth £1million ALL ended up in grimy warehouse near Spurs stadium

A MOTORHEAD revealed he would be selling off a £1million fleet of abandoned motors dating back to the 1940s.

Freddie Fison, 35, facilitated the sale of 174 extraordinary motors in 2021 after they were collected by a businessman at a 45,000 sq ft warehouse in North London over the past decade.

The eye-catching collection had a variety of guide prices, ranging from £100 2000 Citroen Berlingo to a 1960 MG MGA which deep-pocketed buyers could nab for £25,000.

Other bank-breaking motors within the collection in Tottenham included a 1975 Mercedes 350SL for £18,000, a 1989 BMW 635CSI for £16,000 and five cars for £15,000 each - including a 1973 Porsche 911, a 1983 Mercedes 280SL and a 1981 380SL.

Freddie's pal enlisted his help to sell off the fleet after the local council told him they needed the space.
"Essentially it's a local businessman's private collection," he told MailOnline.

"He loves his cars, and since then has been collecting more and more. They were stored in a council-owned warehouse and the council are now redeveloping the area and said we need the warehouse back - all 45,000 sq ft.

"Trying to find a new home for an indoor space in London for that size is not going to happen - times have changed in ten years."

For buyers with a moderate price threshold, 1971 Triumph Spitfire MK4, a 1973 MG MGB, a 1989 Nissan 300ZX and a 1986 Mercedes 300SE could all be scooped for £8,000 each.

On the lower end of the spectrum, tight-fisted motorists could grab the keys to a 2000 Citroen Berlingo which would only set them back £100.

The oldest car on the list was a beautiful 1948 MG.
