Hi all, Taking walk through east cliff today when I stumbled across Number 23 Manor Road. Now from front it looks like a normal bungalow but of course if you look closely theres alot more too it.



Does anyone know what it is going on in there? It looks alot more then just some ones garage! And from the sign on the glass it appears to say No public?

Hi L4MBOLUV3R

I have just been checking the hits on BVMC's website and see its shot up since you discovered Manor Road! I help look after the collection, it is a private collection of cars approx 30 in total.

I see from your website you are a keen photographer and spent sometime @ Salterns!

Hope you enjoyed the website.

Pass place daily as i live on the road...often a few ferraris sitting round there. Tried to strike up a conversation with an oldish guy at the door but he didn't seem least bit interested so i won't bother again

What's the point in posting that on a public forum? It could of been any number of people who go in and out the place or any number of reasons why they did not want to chat.

When I meet the owner for the first time, I was invited to view the cars within 5 mins and then spent a good hour or two viewing the cars and chatting about them.

I have also been working in there when a older guy off the street asked for a look round and the owner said yes and spent some time chatting about the cars.

At the end of the day the owner of the cars is a very busy man the proof of this is the collection of cars alone.

Excellent result, my comment wasn't about anyone being rude was just to state he was there on business so known, ZS was just a passer by so a different reply might be expected

He was the only one there (inside) - something i noted after checking out the place for 10 minutes from near the driveway.

No I was there on business after I got to know the owner. How many people do you think try to get in? Or want something?
