    Everything is in that garage... Coys is a major international auction house based in Kensington, London and is always full of very interesting historic and racing cars. I saw an F50 and F40 plus a Daytona there last time I visited!

    I'll probably be in London for a few days sometime in April, and this looks like something I HAVE to visit! Does anyone have the address for me? Is it located in the centre of London ? I'll probably be staying near Trafalgar Square ("Strand Hotel"). Can you just walk in and take pictures?

    yes, its kinda a long walk from trafalgar, but just a few tube stops away, from embankment to south kensington station, on the green or yellow line, then walk north and you can see Hall and Bradfield, Gregor Fiskin, and Coys, all are very close... both coys and fiskin are on Queens Gate mews... ill post up a map tomorrow of the exact locations...

    coys though is on Queens Gate Mews, however there are 5 or so of these mews along Queens Gate, the area it self is just 1 block southwest of Royal Albert Hall

    It is definitely worth the walk round that area plus Park Lane, Mayfair and Chelsea to see both the best dealers and most interesting cars on the roads. I spent a weekend in the area in 2004 and without too much walking saw 30 plus Ferraris on the roads including 2 Enzos... as long as you go to the right places, it is great fun :D

    A friend owns both a lightweight 300sl gullwing all aluminum car and a "regular" production 300sl and they are both awesome. My Dad was high bidder on one back at barrett-auction in 2004 however we lost the car over 10k :(

    A friend's dad owned one, a patina survivor car ivory color. But he sold it to an auction in 2018. My friend still regret to this day and he's now after another one in the same condition as the one his dad's sold. Car number #128
