Damn, wish I knew it existed last week when I was in the UK during my 30th Birthday, went to the Tank Museum and the Historic Dockyards. Then went to Wales expecting to visit the Doctor Who museum which unfortunately shut down a month earlier. Could probably have gone here for a quick visit instead. Kind of sucks when you had driven over 1300 miles from Sweden to find out that it was closed the month before and wouldn't open for the forseeable future.
At least the kids aren't gonna try to sell off to a game stop store..... Yea sorry bud but even WITH the T34-85 and the Sherman's I can only give you 23.50 for the whole lot!

There was an incident where in Germany that someone had an Panther 2 and the police was been called for a PAK, found it, alerted the Bundeswehr and took it from him, even though he had an all necessary papers to keep it. He used the Panther 2 if Snow was on the road in Winter. It is still unsure to bring it back to him or not due a problem with his papers (Apparently he had ammunition for it too!). It happened a year and half ago. In our Fundamental Rights we Germans are allowed to keep weapons but if there's a problem with ONE WEAPON everything's gone for unforeseen time.
KleanShots yeah by non private museums maybe but besides that it would be better for either books or videos I don’t believe one man should own all that heavy machinery
@@mattkuhnke2856 Why do you feel he shouldn't own such machines? When you buy for example a tank and its barrel is out of commission anyone could own one. If the tank has an operational gun than you have to have a very special license.
This has nothing to do with libertarianism. This is just collecting guns, being a gun enthusiast/sportive shooter/historical shooter/reenactor/history enthusiast.
Stumbled across this place on holiday in Devon last year, tucked away in the middle of nowhere. Everything’s really crammed in, it’s amazing how many vehicles they have jammed nose to tail in that place. Cheap ‘n’ cheerful but well worth a visit.
I like that fact they do full restorations rather then just doing all the beauty work but actually get these pieces of machinery back on the road, many museums can’t, or won’t go the full mile so it’s great to see
I was given the chance to visit Moscow a couple months back and in particular the Kubinka museum, and it was by far one of the most jaw-dropping and spine-tingling experiences I have ever had. Seeing such huge machines that were used in a war that started more than 70 years ago was amazing, and I respect and appreciate anyone trying to preserve that part of history. Also it's amazing how you were given the chance to get a Ram II, but nothing will ever beat the 150 ton Maus that I was able to witness and stand beside. It was an absolute behemoth and almost unimaginable in size.
For you guys who want to know more this a museum you can actually visit , its in North Devon in the southwest of England near the town of Barnstaple , have been there many times myself
Oftentimes, when I'm antiquing on the weekend in Vermont , I see an M-60 Tank in the shop window and just say to myself..."gotta have it. Oh, I shouldn't...oh just live a little, it'll look good on the coffee table."
Man Ive been there its sick they've got tank turrets out front that you can go inside as well as bunkers and rifle targets. And they had a shop that sells neutralised weapon rounds. I bought .45acp, nato 5.56 and nato 7.62
I'd ask you for a job,but your in England...I wouldn't be able to bring my weapons over,or carry one like I can over here...Nice collection,mate..When I go to Lincolnshire,I'll look you guys up!
I went here with my dad. When we were there i leant on a gun display and the door slid open. So they do need to kinda up the security a bit but anyway really nice museum
AEROENGINEERING SP see I thought the Australians had a variant with a gun but I thought he was referring to wanting the Canadian variant which would still be cool but a turreted model would always be cooler.
Are we just gonna ignore the fact that this man alone has more tanks than many many countries in the world
He got an entire army bigger than some countries
jakarta gamer thinking about that, it’s actually true
More tanks than México
I bet country like Vatican, or island Pacific country don't even has one.
More tanks then Canada because Canada doesn’t have tanks
The amount of times I've been there... It's only a 10 minute drive from where I am.
Harry Turner It's North Devon - www.cobbatoncombat.co.uk/
What city is it in? What country is it in?
Not far from me also. I collected a few East German items, at the time, etc :)

more ironically he's got that giant bomb in front of the door under that sign
@Lil Toe Technically not a Tank, but yes them too XD.
@Lil Toe it does in the middle east.
I went to the Cobbaton Combat collection as a child Thirty years ago and it is still in my memories now! Awesome museum!
Sell it = money = happiness = jealously = hatred = death ...in other words don't sell it !
I don't know my name Soz your wrong about money = happiness.
JArvus ff money buys guns and guns are happiness
The Ghost of the Flying Dutchman money buys tanks. And tanks have really large guns and as a bonus nobody can stop you on the road.
JArvus ff Exactly. Money is happiness
JArvus ff money=happyness
You can never have too many tanks...
"Got WAY Out Of Hand" No that is a history collectors heaven!
A lovely museum and collection my two boys have grown up with it over the past 8 years or so

Absolutely brilliant, well done Tim
Been here and loved it
Iv been there and talked to the man himself! Awsome collection packed with stuff.
Great video, well structured.
What a wondeful job/hobby!
For you guys who want to know more this a museum you can actually visit , its in North Devon in the southwest of England near the town of Barnstaple , have been there many times myself
You Sir, have the best job ever. I'm too old & infirm, otherwise, this tanker would be sending you a resume'.

Tanks a lot

Tank collection got way out of hand
Dragonman:oh i dont think so
That is so awesome!! I want to go here
Nice collection
There’s also a guy with a collection of fighter planes in France...
It would have been fun to see some of the collection.
As long as the vehicles are safe, in perfect condition and running order, i like this.
Great video!!!
Well done!! 🍻

Great place.
I would love to visit that
"Deactivated small arms" what a shame.

I quite prefer the American version, there's just something cool about a man who's better equipped to start a war than the local National Guard.
He's called "DragonMan"
Would have been nice if you told us where this collection museum actually is so we could visit and support it?
Awesome .
The safest man in the U.K. surrounded by tanks I bet no one ever messes with him lmao
If you had that in America, you will have 20x more fun with those.
Vasili Tarkov wrong if you were on Russia
we have that in a lot of places. the military museum near me also has a shooting range, motocross place, paintball field, and machine shop
JustQinn I was from there originally, but haven't been back in Chelyabinsk in 4 years.
In the uk you can have a tank with a working gun with a regular bolt rifle licence for the gun and a classic car license for the rest of it
not true
i got sad at the word deactivated.
those will be handy soon
These are great men, everyone loves tanks
Yo if he's keeping history alive...I have no complaints...
out of hand??? thats only getting started...
I used to go to Jacques Littlefield's collection (200+) before he died and his kids, against his wishes, managed to cash it out.
i wish the tank museum near me had a ram Oshawa Ontario Canada also any variant of the CMPs since the the chevs were built here
Funny enough I went to this Museum like last year
Out of hand my ass.

That's a lot of big manly toys you got there.
Need a bigger shop TBH.
how the hell....
Im curious what their draw to the Ram Kangaroo was. What was so special in their eyes.
A True Wisconsinite the ram was one of Canadas first major attepts at building their own tank
AEROENGINEERING SP oh I see. Even though it was just a troop carrier.
A True Wisconsinite I believe the Australians removed the turrets and used the chassis as an APC. You're not quite wrong
AEROENGINEERING SP see I thought the Australians had a variant with a gun but I thought he was referring to wanting the Canadian variant which would still be cool but a turreted model would always be cooler.
Where is this museum?
