The Worlds Most Expensive Car Graveyard! Priceless Collection Rotting Away In A Forest….On Purpose!

- Most people think Michael Fröhlich, a classic car dealer from Dusseldorf, is a bit mental. Which is perfectly reasonable. He looks like a cross between Uri Geller and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Tanned, smiling and self-assured, he's in the classic car business for decades.
The man's a collector himself too, but not as we know it. His daily driver gives a hint to his perversion - it' a fire-damaged Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow with a new drivetrain and suspension setup, but the body still wears its, umm, "patina".
So far so spooky, but his real collection's even more frivolous. It is a collection of 50 cars from 1950 - his year of birth - that have been parked in his estate's garden as if it was an old style scrap yard. Fröhlich calls it his Auto Skulpturenpark - Car Sculpture Park.
But not everyone shares his opinion. "There have been people here from car clubs. Most are shocked when they see this place. I have had some very unfriendly comments."
He Is one of the nicest chaps i have ever met and gave me special permission to film his collection of absolutely incredible cars! Entry to the site is 10 Euros PP or 20 if you want to take pictures or videos.

That guy is insane criminally insane
Explore the scariest car graveyards in the world❤
For me, this just isn't right to treat these works of art like this . I'm not saying they should be in a museum under dust sheets and car covers , but they should just be in good condition driven and loved
There is a place in Cartersville Ga USA. Its called Old car city that has 6 miles of cars like this in the woods. They have been there for 40, 50, 60 some 70 years. It is sad
He wanted to make a point that he's clearly got more money than sence. And that many poor bastards dream car he'll just buy and let em rot. What an arrogant waste, nailed it
Watched this issue and wiped away tears of nostalgia. In this park there are rare for Europe cars from the Soviet Union - dug in the back of the ground - Moskvich 400 (or 401) was not officially sold in Europe. The gray car between two trees is a Gaz M20 "Pobeda" which was also not sold outside the Soviet Union.
Congratulations Colin, you have touched the automobile history of my country).
Kind regards from Moscow!
Moskvitch and Pobeda were exported to several western countries.
God. What shame to see so. Many rare cars just rotting away. Love what hes done, a car grave yard theme park. Just crazy.
Its shit what he's done in my opinion
6:22 Jawa Velorex, 2-stroke engine, made in Czechoslovakia. Reversing was initiated by starting the engine in the opposite direction.
14:35 Tatra 600 Tatraplan, made in Czechoslovakia 1948-1952, engine boxer B4.
14:55 Ifa F9 from Germany (1953-1956). 2-stroke engine, 3-cylinder.
16:06 Framo F901, also from Germany (1954-1961), same engine like Ifa.
19:35 Legendary pedal car Moskvich 3rd. series from CCCP
He had literary money to burn! I would have made an museum instead so people could remember the history of them. But that's just my thinking. Grand Video Colin 👍😊
Hi Colin What an amazing place,those cars in one way what a shame and another I can sort of see the reason by it all. They really would be worth a fortune if in good condition,and I know all about Citreon suspension I have owed 2 they really are sooo comfortable to travel around in, your commentary ace as usual.Thanks for showing us all this great video. Look forward as usual to next weeks. Take care.😀
It feels like this geeza watched your videos and loved them so much he tried to imitate them..
There is a genuine connection to the real sites you visit , like a time capsule with a decaying story to be told
The bomb is actually a fuel tank and is almost certainly empty, fairly lightweight considering it’s size.
Well Colin your done it again, this was fantastic thank you for taking us wiv you 🙏❤️
Cool place Colin great find to visit and the way the cars are staged could spend hours there 👍👍👍👍
crying watching this, so sad to see those amazing cars being left like that. I understand he wanted to make a point, but what a waste.
Another great video, thanks for all you do on this site.

Fantastic video Colin!
I'm not really a car person but I love history. You make cars fun and interesting with your enthusiasm for them. Thanks for the tour!
Hi Colin it just makes me so sad, was this man sane when he did this to these rare classics.
My son & his friend bumped into you this evening Sunday at your new explore in our village he was well excited to have a chat with you 😀
What an awesome location! I’d love to explore somewhere like this one day, I find it fascinating. 👍🏻
awesome place colin thanks for the view brother 🔥💯
😎✌️
What a thoroughly enjoyable video of a really fantastic place 😮 All those cars but the second I saw the huge bird cage I wanted one for my garden 😮😂😂😍
What a waste of beautiful and expensive classic cars! 😮😢 Greetings from Spain.
Hi Colin. I loved the video.
Great location again Colin 🙌🏻
Very sad about the neglect, awesome find though!
I did the hard knott pass in a rental 520d. It was fun and terrifying in equal measure!
@19.53, Austin A30
Fantastic video. Can’t believe they let them rot
nice
At 20:27, no mention of what looked to me like an Austin A30, boss?
i want the split window bug so bad Oh my God dude do you understand how rare that bug is ? rarest of them all ,every one of them is worth saving I got 22 VWs I'll build one for you and trade for that one✌✌😂im in California
The pick up truck with the bulldog badge I believe was actually given the name Bulldog as a sort of production nick name and it stuck, because of the shape of the nose.
Well...he's not wrong. One day everyone and everything will cease to exist and or burn up. I understand his point... yeah...you spend 10s if not hundreds of thousands of dollars on something...one day it will be gone, become someone else's or get thrown out. We spend and spend on things that will not matter in life's end. I constantly ponder that, but then again...I find myself buying another project car..lol! Ahh...it's just money. Keep doing what you love to do.
Cheers!
What an amazing place to visit. Do you know what condition the cars were in when they were purchased? I cannot help but wonder if some of them were driven in to their final resting places.
The BBC branded microphone foams from your Instagram post, were made and delivered by my company ;)
Hiya Colin-brilliant video-brilliant finds. Always enjoy your videos. My wife loves your voice. Keep it up!
Who's a good horse 🐎 YOU ARE!!.
It’s art and makes us confront the impermanence of life and objects. Things are lost over time. What will people know about us in 1000, 10,000 or 100,000 years time?
Crazy cars in there if in good condition worth loads of cash
Very sad to see these cars left open to the elements. Beautiful cars. I get the point he was trying to make but What a shame, thanks for the video Collin 😊
@@deanosaur808 were not was
Just amazing but then sad.
The reality that nothing lasts forever is a reason to cherish what we have while we have it, not revel in its destruction. No doubt this foolish man thinks himself profound. He is not. I had better not go there, or I may be one of those making unkind comments!
They look like some was scrappers as they may have been written off already but hope some wasent in good condition when they was left in the forest, you tuber hubnut as a citrion 2cv and he recently did a video on it going up a steep hill
You're such a kind and compassionate soul.
Sup Colin.
The car at 7:50 is a Holden FX - all the way from Australia! How did it find its way to a forest in Dusseldorf?
Don't worry your old beetle is still in good hands 🙌🏼
are there any pictures from when he first created this museum ? You should have got an interview with the owner...
The quarter panel om that 4rth car has been deliberately cut I see.
What a waste. Such a shame they have been ruined on purpose.
You’ve done the van, what happened to the Bearded restorer channel?
How amazing is this place, luv it 😊
Anyone know of any images of the cars states more towards the beggining of the art project? Curious to what state they were in early on.
I came across this guy a few years ago and spent some time looking into it, I found an old german magazine article from when he first set this up and the majority of the cars were in perfect, usable conditon. He was a classic car dealer and owned tons of classic cars so had easy access to almost anything he wanted, we should count ourselves lucky he decided to stop at just 50...The guy is a narcissistic idiot, not only for leaving servicable cars to rot, but for contaminating land that will be there long after he is gone. It doesn't make the profound statement that he thinks it does, it just shows complete disrespect and weird attention seeking in my opinon, but at the end of the day what he has at least proven is that money can't buy intelligence.
@@deadjumpers87So true. The sane response to impermanence is not narcissism and destruction, it is gratitude and appreciation of the things we do have.
The Citroen 2CV was the classic first car for teenagers in the 80s. Was it comfortable? No. Did all 4 wheels stay on the ground? Mostly. Were you getting seasick as the suspension was bouncing so much? Most definitely.
To know that this was done intentionally, makes my blood boil.
Thank you for sharing that amazing place.♥️
It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the house of feasting: for that is the end of all men; and the living will lay it to his heart. Sorrow is better than laughter: for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better. Ecclesiastes 7:23
Hardly a Revelation ..Do we need such an illustration to describe the Bleeding obvious...Surely the money could have gone to a more worthy cause
Oh wow, what amazing cool place to visit, love the Buckingham place car 😂😂😂😂😂.
So when the cars finally rusted away the place shuts down very cleaver
Pity about the background music, it should have been something hushed
I bet people try to buy some of that stuff
send them all to Yorkshire car restoration they can rebuild anything the million pound collection could be a billion pound or more lol
Hopefully they were already scrappers
I watch this video Saturday the 12th of August 23
They were probably bought when their prices were rock bottom. Then left to rot as the repair bills were too high vis-à-vis their market value at the time. Fast forward a decade or so though… unfortunately most, if not all are total scrap and beyond repair. Even if you refabricated it all, there would be no originality left. So pick up an R32 or Renault Megan/Clio Cup while you can.
🚗♥️
Nothing but a simple wax would restore them all as new
Hi Colin 21:28 the police car I have seen it in the Warner Bros movie park one of police cars in the Stunts shows
Just shows wat money the man has got to leave all these rare cars to rot in a forest
He’s not right in the head. To deliberately wreck a collection of cars - wouldn’t be so bad if they were all everyday machines made in their millions. But the Porsche and the Jaguar; they are traumatised - destroyed. That’s not beauty. That’s sadism. The owner is sadistic to those automobiles.
I don't normally watch your car videos preferring abandoned houses etc but that was absolutely fascinating!! This guy, apart from having a truck load of money also had a wonderful sense of humour. You are right though, nothing lasts forever and one day all those lovely old cars will disintegrate and be no more! Gill 🇬🇧
they wouldn't if they were preserved properly
Amazing video as always. Doing something so controversial that's going to wind so many people up could easily have made him seem like an arrogant, rich tw4t.😉
Die Sammlung ist seit dem Jahr 2000 zugänglich. Viele Fahrzeuge waren restauriert und fahrbereit ( Jag XK, Porsche, Buick,....) Der Betreiber ist Oldtimerhändler.
Ich könnte kotzen....
what a waste of time to stage these cars...strap a fake bomb to one, cut them in half and put them around trees when you could have covered them and taken care of them until they were able to be repaired
Some say the owner is crazy, some say he's cool....most of the cars have been running and were in exellent comdition when he putted them in his outdoor-museum...as time goes by.....but at least the owner is rotting also....
It all sounds a bit to Eurotrash

I get the point of this but honestly it angers me seeing these cars like this, even more so cos this person spent millions on them to just let them rot away like this. It shows that people with money have no sense and don't care about anyone else, and even dares to charge a fee to view them.
Such a waste. These will all be too far gone to appreciate at all in a few years, and will no longer be preservable either.
It's weird the concept of this is nature reclaiming ? except for a car could also be damaging to the plants and nature around it by just sitting there and rotting but ok
Also just destroying the property, who's going buy it after you pass considering all this junk they're gonna have to clean up
And nature isn't reclaiming the area if you have to stage it and force it to happen
Selfish uncaring ..what a waste.
I guess art is meant to create a reaction.
🤷🏼♂️🤦♂️🇬🇧🙉
Always sad to see these car graveyards. Glad there were no Jaguars. Funny the British car. Haha!.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Jaguar at 22:17
.
Oops, guess I wasn't paying attention. No like seeing Jags in a junkyard.
@@clairefunnell8481 yep, I was the same about the BMW 340 😔
This isn't a car graveyard, it is a car extermination camp.
I don't get it. There are much better ways to teach people the truth of impermanence.
This is the willful destruction of cultural heritage. He might as well be burning books.
The best analogy I can make is to the book 'Fight Club' in which the protagonist realises that the material world is ultimately unsatisfactory and impermanent and responds in completely the wrong way: Instead of learning to appreciate things while they last, he decides to destroy everything...'I felt like destroying something beautiful'.
They aint worth a million now
It shows that older cars last longer where some modern cars brake or rust faster
Some Christians will never die.
Don’t get it.
Dont know about this one mixed emotions.destroying classic cars to make some benign statement about life and decay bla bla guys quite ov out of hes gourd.seems like a place artsy people would go to get a semi tbh 😅
Studebaker nose from car .. bullet
Sorry but I don't get the philosophy behind this collection at all. This is deliberate neglect rather than the unfortunate and unintended neglect of the majority of finds you cover. You must be a fool to pay to visit this site
Yes your right T.B.E things on this earth will "not" last forever. I would even go a step further and say with my christian beliefs that the good old book the bible speaks about this by saying "everything even this world will all burn up the only thing the wont is our souls
Eu sou apaixonado nesse vídeo meu brother ❤❤❤❤
