Exploring Rodger Dudding's incredible collection of 450 cars

One of the world's most prolific collectors, Rodger Dudding has amassed more than 450 cars since the late 1960s. Known as Studio 434 and based in Potters Bar in Hertfordshire, Rodger's collection is astonishingly diverse and includes all sorts of rarities, as well as plenty of more mainstream (but no less desirable) classic cars. And of course there are the 24 Aston Martin Lagondas, the car with which Rodger is most usually associated.
I spent some time with Rodger at the end of 2023, chatting about how the collection came about and what some of his favourite cars are. In this video you can see just some of the 450-strong collection - and also find out why you need to go and take a look at it all yourself.

Amazing collection. I’d heard of it but not seen it. Folks like Rodger and Leno won’t be around forever, I hope these sort of collections can remain in their current form for we car lovers to view in the future.
Thanks for sharing Rodger.

Thanks for such an incredible video, my personal favourite car seen in the video is the AC428 FRUA , it's such a beautiful car.

[@BelowtheRadarCars]

Ah - a man of taste! That's one of my favourites too, especially when it wears the registration AC 428!

[@rjdavies1982]

This must give Leno's collection a run for it's money!!

[@jf6853]

Wow! He's got the concept car Lotus M250. I remember placing an order (deposit) on one at Lotus Bell and Covill in Surrey. Shame it did not go into production. What a great video. Thanks for sharing!

I wish Rodger would set up a TH-cam channel. It would generate a lot of dosh, and ensure that this collection is safe. I am willing to volunteer to be a driver!

All operwational!

[@user-wv3gp2dt2x]

Wow.

[@Grantrap]

Why are they sat so far apart? To keep the fire exit clear at all times?

[@Predikant]

A 1900 Model T Ford, that sounds interesting!

[@BelowtheRadarCars]

Rodger isn't great with dates! I think he meant '1900s'

[@TheBTG88]

What a shame that he no longer drives.

[@alancrisp1582]

🤔 How truly ironic when you think about it !.........

[@garychilds1130]

I doubt you have a 1900 model T Ford maybe a1908

[@davidfisher3273]

It is shameful that all our car brands are foreign owned

[@oliverbold9724]

WOHER kommen sie

[@ingmarlangerak8973]

The British are giving their whole country away to the Muslims!

[@JacobTab_S7_Plus-sg4ju]

Come on the UK cars/brands lost because there where crapy made.

[@johnmalenchek6597]

Not to mention the primitive engineering. Spot on
