The Car Cave Private Garage Collection for the True Car Fanatic. Welcome to another Car Cave episode of The Late Brake Show. In this video Jonny Smith visits Tony Hughes in Cheshire, a man who has amassed a collection of cars that are either sentimental, great to drive, absolute survivors or machines he always dreamt of. But everything from his Datsun 240Z Samuri, to Willys Jeep, to Ford GT and grey Ferguson tractor share one thing in common; they are all used. Nothing is bought as pure investment, it's bought because it does something for Tony.

Thanks for stopping by The Late Brake Show.

If you appreciate eclectic automotive taste and a car collection that has been assembled entirely around one man's lifelong bucket list, then this episode should be right up your alley.

  • Possibly my favourite episode ever. As most people have said already, to have these cars owned by such a knowledgeable and nice guy makes it even better. Keep up the good work Johnny and team 👍
  • @trueg66
    The headlights of the MG XPower SV do not come from the Renault Clio, but from a Fiat Punto and the rear lights from a Fiat Coupé.
  • Proper collection, not trying to impress anyone with that, but still manages to.
  • @SpankyFisher
    I had a very similar collection at one point a lot earlier in my life. Forever polishing and cherishing them and keeping them on display just for my eyes only. They were Matchbox, Dinky toys, Hot Wheels and Corgi 😅....the closest I'll ever get to this phenomenal collection, superb!.
  • You've got to going and see his mate with the batmobile Johnny!
  • @TheAgwarn
    Great guy that seems to genuinely love his cars (MG lights are from a Punto btw) 👍🏼
  • @neiliosr8
    Fantastic collection, but I think he's mistaken about the headlights of the MG, their are actually Fiat Punto lights and not Renault Clio
  • @MrVoidGamerzz
    I’m one of the photographers in Alderley Edge, I’ve been lucky enough to see this collection and go out in the Z8. I’ve got to say that Tony is one of the most genuine and enthusiastic car collectors I’ve ever met. Truly a humble man with one of the best enthusiasts car collections in the country
  • You know you did something right when you can casually say: "My friend has a Batmobile!"
  • He Seems like a proper top bloke. You can see and hear his passion. Great collection. Thanx for sharing with us 🙏
  • @scofair1968
    One of your best episides Jonny!!! It wasn't just the specific cars, it was Tony's knowledge together with the amazing back stories
  • @airchie2
    Couldn't work out why all the licence plates were ADH but finally worked out it's Antony D Hughes... :D Lovely collection and seems like a very down to earth guy considering. :)
  • @johnwaga3702
    What an awesome collection to have. In my opinion the BMW 3.0CSL is the best looking car BMW has ever made.
  • What a beautiful car collection, and the owner comes across as such a lovely bloke.... Happy days indeed.
  • What a legend this guy is and he doesn't realise it. So under the radar, if anyone was more deserving of being a star in a car on TG, he is it. Thanks Johnny, I agree a no brainer visit. That MG, I'd had literally forgotten about those. So thanks to Tony and to you for airing, only problem it was too short!
  • Here in USA youo used to be able to buy surplus jeeps in the back of Popular Science magazine. All boxed up with instructions to put together! Looks like you need to send Shaky over there to look over the motorcycles.
  • @PenryMMJ
    What an amazing collection. I particularly like the MG X-power, which in it's previous incarnations as the De Tomaso Mangusta, and Qvale Magusta had already caused two manufacturers to go bankrupt before it finished off MG. There's something especially cool about a car that makes such bad business sense, but they built it anyway.
  • @DFle-yk5jn
    What a gent. He deserves it. You can tell how passionate he is about the cars and yet he has no airs and graces. Well done Johnny Never fails to produce the finest 😁 Cheers man 🥂
  • @goosegog
    Wow, what a wonderful collection of cars, chosen from the heart. Cheers Jonny and Tony 👍🏻
  • @boydiedj3718
    I could listen to Tony for hours!! What an interesting man. Love his cars. Certainly has a few quid tied up in them. The Healey and RS2000 really ticks my boxes. Thank you 🙏
