"..........and houses the largest private collection of F1 cars in the world"

Second largest. There are 44 cars in Heritage if memory serves and if Dickie hasn't had a move around. There's a none UK private collection with over twice that many cars (many of which are running), including a good selection of Williams.

It's a valuable asset, it would make sense to exploit that.

Not all the cars in the Donington Collection are owned by the Wheatcroft family. Owners often allow them to be displayed.

Yes, he had about 80 cars there, 35 of them Brabhams in 2009.
