Oh wow! I thought that you had a deal that they are blocking off areas for you to film. Now it’s even more of a thing to look forward to if it’s that empty.
Wow! As an aging car racer and retiring architect, I could not have asked visually for more than what you have provided. You have shown to me a complete validation of my two greatest passions. Thank You!
Since they had a focused Opel collection. If you noticed the Opel Ascona in a wall unit, i thought i saw an Opel Manta as well. The Ascona is like the Chevy Nova and the Manta like the Camaro. Both were built on the same chassis. One sportier, the other a family car. Whats interesting is this chassis is also the same chassis used under the Chevy Chevette. I built multiple Manta's while stationed in Germany. They were extremely fun, especially on the autobahn. What a great video, thanks!
A collection that everyone else in the world can only dream of. Next time when I'm on that side of the pond I'll have to mak a visit. Thanks for sharing and the amazing videography as always.
I’ve heard of the place but have never seen a tour. Simply astonishing. The reverent filmmaking combined with the industrial, almost steampunk backdrop for all those cars is magnificent.
I am fortunate to live only about seven kilometers from this remarkable collection and exhibition. I'll be there for the third time soon. With every visit you see and find new details! Simply breathtaking!
Thanks Mike, a truly outstanding collection, I have to say your video production is excellent. I love all your vids and builds but this one really showed how good they are getting, cheers again 🍺
Went there this spring with my son, on our annual roadtrip-weekend. Beautiful Collection in a remarkable building. We live an hour away from the region Sauerland, where the Museum is located; when you go there, be sure to combine it with a tour in the surroundings. Very pretty. Nice to see the host of one of the channels I follow go there👍🏻 Fun video !
You are not the odd man out on the 190. That is my favorite car, with the Evo II a close second. I have a couple German friends who have mentioned this place as somewhere we need to visit when I eventually make the trip over there, and now I see why. That looks like heaven.
I saw you guys in the museum when you were there, but didn’t want to interrupt since you were just getting your tour. Was great seeing you in person and I hope you enjoyed your time in Germany. Seems like you were certainly as stunned as I was seeing this insane collection of automobilia 😄
I love this video. Grew up near this place and it has also some incredible country roads if anyone fancies a trip to this place - don't take the Autobahn exclusively. There are some nice lakes (e.g. the Sorpetalsperre) and some more areas to explore.
I`ve visited the Loh collection a few weeks ago. It's acutually such a beautiful place, made with so much love and everyone is super friendly! If you are in the region definitely go and take a look! But I have to say the most beautiful car was the Ferrari 250 GT swb in black and the german stripes, it is parked in the Ferrari collection across the big 5.
Mike, I got to ride along in a 412p last year and its absolutely as rad as youd think it would be. Thanks for this awesome peak into this collection. Let me know if youd like to work on something together. Cheers man
And i thought here in LA the Petersen Museum had a great collection of cars. This is going on the top of my lust now when i visit Germany. Thanks for sharing.
Hell yeah Mike! I love the Hamilton comment. Lewis winning another championship in a Ferrari would be epic. Thanks for taking us on this tour. Very cool.
Wow that is some collection and the layout is fantastic. The 330 and 412 Ferraris are the best they ever made for looks. Seeing either of these is a treat
@@Chillymac1970 It was excellent but I wish I had another few days to do some of the things I missed, like this. Guess I’ll have to go back another time.
That's so funny to hear your perspective on the 190. 1982, I was 11 and had just finished putting tires on a 450SEL 6.9 and a customer pulled up in a 190E. I hadn't seen one before and it looked like the cheapest pile of junk I'd ever seen. 😅 They grew on me over the years, but that first one was a shock.
I can absolutely get on board with the 412P being the most beautiful car ever built. My personal choice is the Alfa Romeo Tipo 33 which doesn't look too dissimilar to the 412P . Thanks for uploading such a cool collection, even though you did murder the pronunciation of Vignale and Tyrrell 😂 but still a very cool video Mike
Unbelievable collection. Definitely worth considering a trip just for this. I assume you’ve been to the Peterson and the Nethercutt? The vault at the Peterson is somewhat the opposite of this collection. Unbelievable mix of cars just in an underground parking garage, parked door to door with zero guardrails or displays. We went during Le Mans a few years ago and they had a 250GTO just sitting in the aisle way. As they told the story about Ickx walking to his GT40 and then winning that year, they pointed out the GT40 10 feet away. “Ickx went on to win after his protest in a GT40. This GT40” We walked past cars I’d only ever seen in magazines without even stoping to look at them as they just had row after row of unbelievable cars.
I'm sure this visit has filled you with inspiration for future projects, look forward to seeing the results. I'll add this to my list of museum visits.
Collection Schlumpf in Mulhouse is the best I have ever been to, but (like Loh which I saw in 2018) the racecars are what make it special.. not that you see a Bugatti Atlantic every day, but racecars have stories and soul
Nice Mike! Stunning collection. Have you ever seen the Louwman collection in The Hague in The Netherlands? It's the oldest private car collection in the world and has some stunning cars in the collection. I think you would definetly enjoy that too
Lovely collection. Only man laughing in the room is the Sultan of Brunei - his collection, if you can call it that makes this look like child's play. Nothing will ever compare. Some have seen it too - it is beyond words apparently.
Yeah, but he only buys Cars and Cars and Cars, some mass products, some don't even drive. In this Collection you get to See so many limited driving Cars...
@@guillaumesandmayer7053 I know this because all those race cars exist in all kinds of other collections, they're pretty much all accounted for, he has none... he only has road cars and custom one-offs, most of which are rotting away in non temperature controlled warehouses, and the vast majority of those thousands, are basically copies of the same cars, like 50 of the same Ferrari model, that's not collecting, that's hoarding. He's basically a really wealthy hoarder. Mystique my ass.
This collection is owned by Friedhelm Loh a German industrialist who was given an electrical startup company in 1961 by his father Rudolf Loh. Rudolf Loh was a Nazi who served in WWII and was in both the western front fighting against the US Army and later transferrred to the Eastern front where he was wounded in battle against the Soviets. After recovering from his wounds he was assigned to Peenemunde where he worked on the Nazi nuclear program as well as the control systems for the V2 rocket. There are unanswered questions about the source of his financing which allowed him to begin a manufacturing business immediately after the end of the war at which time Germany was totally devastated and most people struggled to find food.
@@matmotorsport3840 The subject of the story is not about cars, but the size of the collection. To most people that makes them more curious about the owner than the cars themselves. People ask "what kind of person can own 1.5 billion in cars", "where does he get the money?" others will ask "Is he like Jay Leno who is a car person or is he just a rich guy collecting as an investment?"
What's remarkable is the fact that there are no crowds, you can actually photograph and properly document the cars. Thank you for the tour.
And we were there during normal business hours! What you see is a normal Thursday afternoon. :)
Oh wow! I thought that you had a deal that they are blocking off areas for you to film. Now it’s even more of a thing to look forward to if it’s that empty.
Not only that but nothing is roped off or has any barriers. You could walk right up to many of them!
The Museum is not located near a big city - so you can't expect a lot of walk-in tourists there. Good for the real petrol heads.
@@Raptor58559 Dont go on the weekends, it will be crowded then. ( I was There )
I live pretty close to this collection but only been there once, absolutely breathtaking!
This is next level ,,, 👍👍👍
Completly insane collection
Great collection ❤❤ well worth a visit ❤❤
Wow! As an aging car racer and retiring architect, I could not have asked visually for more than what you have provided. You have shown to me a complete validation of my two greatest passions. Thank You!
When the wrapper is as good as the candy. What a cool building/architecture/ layout/design.
I was there two weeks ago! It's the completely amazing!
Been there a couple of months ago, absolutely worth a visit, magnificent museum!!
been there, just an hour and half from my home- super cool ; )

One of the coolet things youve ever put on the ol interwebs.
Cheers Mike. That Opel Astra is something else.
Absolutely incredible! I am adding this to my next Europe trip for sure! Thank you for sharing this with us!
Incredible place, it’s now on my list of places I have to see while in Germany.
Didn't even know about this collection and its only two hours away from me! Thank you for showing us this amazing place!
Stunning collection but also stunning filming, the reflections the lighting it’s all extremely well made
Man that collection is no joke. I'm with you SW, the 412p and it's 330P4 sisters in my opinion are the most beautiful cars ever built.
What a cool montage! Great video
It's 250 km away from me. I'm going there soon.
I don’t think I’ve taken so many screenshots during a video in my LIFE… Bravissimo! 🎉
I could probably watch a 3 hour long video of the raw footage from this shoot. Stunning collection, fantastic presentation!
8:12... The Peugeot 404 Station Wagon in the background.. with the Ferrari name on the side. Love it. Grew up in the sedan.. LOVED that car
Thanks so much for this video. Amazing.
Truly stunning and an amazing collection of cars!

I love your intro theme. It is you.
Wow that is some collection and the layout is fantastic. The 330 and 412 Ferraris are the best they ever made for looks. Seeing either of these is a treat
I love these little breaks from the shop life ❤
It's wild how some shots make it look like a diecast car collection, the scale of everything is mental
Perfect time for breakfast. Absolutely unreal collection.
Thanks Man!! I’m going to Frankfurt in October for work, I will plan a side trip to the Low Collection for sure (only 100kms away)
Ffffff I was in Germany last week, went to several museums, various different tracks and 3 race events.
I had NO IDEA this museum existed.
@@robin_marriott sounds like you had a great time in Germany! Hopefully you got to see some great cars.
@@Chillymac1970 It was excellent but I wish I had another few days to do some of the things I missed, like this. Guess I’ll have to go back another time.
it is brand new. I was born and raised in Stuttgart and worked in interiors for museums and even I just heard 6 months ago about it.
its first opening is now around 1 year ago. so it was nearly unkown in germany too, until the start withe the first expo lemans

While I most certainly appreciate all those euro sports and race cars, I'm not really fan. But wow, this is just mind-blowing! Thanks for sharing.
Wow. Definetly going to be paying a visit in the future.
Kimi’s championship winning car is amazing !!!! 🏎️💨
I can absolutely get on board with the 412P being the most beautiful car ever built. My personal choice is the Alfa Romeo Tipo 33 which doesn't look too dissimilar to the 412P . Thanks for uploading such a cool collection, even though you did murder the pronunciation of Vignale and Tyrrell 😂 but still a very cool video Mike
The Ferrari F2004 and the Maybach Exelero alone would make this place worth visiting for me.
It's a close call between the 412 P and 206 sp.... Both are beautiful Italian racing machinery. Also the Rolfo Ferrari transporter looked amazing.
That was a good 12 minutes, I was even peering at the cars in the back ground, must go there.
The 412 P reminds me of the cars in speed racer. Good stuff.
Certainly agree with you on the 412P. That, and the P3/4 and 206SP are the most gorgeous Ferrari race cars ever.
Unbelievable collection. Definitely worth considering a trip just for this.
I assume you’ve been to the Peterson and the Nethercutt? The vault at the Peterson is somewhat the opposite of this collection. Unbelievable mix of cars just in an underground parking garage, parked door to door with zero guardrails or displays.

😀 Very Good! 🚘😎 cool cars.. 👏
I so agree with you re: the Ferrari 4P. Truly the most beautiful race car in the world!!
Couldn't agree more about the 412P / 330 P4 😍
I'm sure this visit has filled you with inspiration for future projects, look forward to seeing the results. I'll add this to my list of museum visits.
the Mercedes CLR... regardless of it failing by flying... I think is among the most beautiful cars EVER made...
100% 👍
I am using a Mercedes M120 V12 for my project 😎
dont do us dirty with the premium quality pls
I totally agree with the 412p being one of the most beautiful cars ever made

Indeed a beautiful car. Have thought so since first seeing one. The Jags though...
hearing kimi raikkonens name on this channel warms my heart
What a beautiful collection. You should try the Louwman collection in the Hague, the Netherlands.
At 9:14 the 611 Shooting Brake - Does anyone know the year and model of this beauty?
That 2007 Ferrari F1 car has the nicest metallic red paint. I saw it at the Ferrari factory back in 2014 and I still remember
Nice Mike! Stunning collection. Have you ever seen the Louwman collection in The Hague in The Netherlands? It's the oldest private car collection in the world and has some stunning cars in the collection. I think you would definetly enjoy that too
Top tip! Only 3:20 h from my home. Must do trip to do!
Best video on the internet as of writing.
Can't wait to know what you have gone there to buy
I grew up 90Min away - I think I should plan for a trip, next time I‘m in Germany 😊
I have always loved the XKSS. I wish you had gotten some video of it.
412p and p330 are my favorote designs ever!
And I love that he has a Opel Rekord right in the middle of his collection. It was nick named the craftsman Mercedes.
Class 1 # Sonax Tabac...my alltime favorite
Stunning
Feels like a Gran Turismo career garage brought to life. 👌🏽
Alternative title: "When a real car guy becomes billionair, he will not tell anyone, but there will be signs"
The Merc at 15 seconds......I would do unspeakable things to own that car lol.
It's a 8 hour drive from where I live, this could be a great roadtrip.
5:20 I first drove this car in blur playing with my cousins.
5:23 Go'daam! I heard some loud sounds in my head!!
8:02 "The gravity these cars possess.."
I see what you did there 😅
#039 Motor Wagen. The 39th car ever made. Sounds valuable
