RIP to the burning F40 in Monaco

I can't even begin to fathom the thought process behind "Hey, I've managed to get this one-off custom by Pininfarina f40 in a colour literally no one else has, because one-off custom by Pininfarina for the sultan of Brunei. So let's, you know, spray it red because Ferrari's ought to be red, all the others are!". Like, while they aren't exactly an everyday car there are literally hundreds of red ones out there...

Rush Brunei, they can't stop us all

As long as they are being taken care of and not “neglected”, I don’t really care. They’re not my cars. It is nice to think that someday these cars will emerge and we will get to see what these F40s were like new, but decades later. Think of it as saving them for a future generation.

The real question is.. How many Royal Mail Trucks are currently pushing MK5 GTI’s? 🤔

6:42 why do all the F40s look sad??

Who would repaint such legendary specs that were unique? If he wanted a red over red he could have just bought a normal one ....

I am loving this style of video - more please car throttle!

I think it's hilarious that in the early 2000s, collectors wanted the most basic specs. Rosso Crosa with tan interior. Now, collectors want the most unique, and rarest specs. If they kept the yellow car yellow, it would be worth at least 50% more

Anyone from Brunei?🇧🇳

As a 51 year old I am so glad they exist in the first place. The 80's/90's super cars are my era. However I feel it's a crying shame so many are locked away. I once saw a Ducati 851 Super bike (New out at the time) being ridden through London in the snow. We were like dude it's snowing. He said "If I just wanted to look at it, I'd have bought a Picasso." I'll never forget that saying.

I'm from Brunei and I can honestly say I've never seen any of these cars on the road. So it's safe to assume that they're most likely still in storage

This week an F40 burned in Monaco so RIP

We need someone to raid Sultan Brunei’s dream garage and release those beauty beast😤

Loving this kind of secret stories etc. Especially from the Brunei collection

*Big Smoke voice* "I'll take eleven F40S, 5 in RHD, 2 in LHD, all of them with leather interior and I'll take two F40 LMs, one in black." DEAD

Lived in Brunei for 7 years; can confirm that I've never seen these

Such a shame they keep it to themselves. At least use it to appreciate the beauty of the car!

6:36 “Save us...”

A crime against car enthusiasts worldwide

This is AMAZING. Love these interesting detective stories of hidden jewels on wheels

Great Video!! Some history is always welcome! Makes You appreciate the Timelessness of these cars even more

Amazing work. I’ve always wondered about those F40’s. “Eternal storage” and “prison” is how I see these cars too, so sad

Love these kinds of videos! The editing is really well done!

Keep em coming guys loving these stories

Loving this abandoned series! Keep them coming! 😍

Keep this series up! Its so interesting. I follow you guys for this! Impressive work.

Ahh this channel does so many things well! Good job guys

LOVE UR VIDS, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.

I've had that grey F40 the DK Engineering had/has as my phone background for months and only just realised that it's RHD!

These videos are brilliant! Keep it up guys.

One is actually in the UK and was owned by the late great Jimmy Saville. It had custom body panels added which disguised it to look exactly like the humble Vauxhall Astra, and it was repainted as beige over brown (luxury velour). After Jimmy was found out to be a bit of a lad, the car was uncovered, given a £15 mini valet at the local Polish car wash (during which 4 pairs of suspiciously small underpants were found under the passenger seat), and sent to Bradford car auctions. Unsurprisingly, due to its understated nature, there was little bidding interest to begin with. But once knowledge of the underseat treasure trove was made public, bidding went throught the roof. The hammer dropped at £350 and the mystery buyer was said to be planning to use it to deliver takeaways. So if you're in the Bradford area and you order a curry that gets there in a hurry, savour it, as it may have been delivered in the famous Saville F40.

Isn't this the voice of the guy who got fired by Top Gear, Rory?

It's been said by people who have met the Brunei royals that they have no idea what thing realy cost. They are very sheltered. Don't envy them. It's a shame they don't get driven, but then again this is quite common in the Ferrari community. The Sultan's brother is the one buying all the cars. The Sultan has the world's only station wagon Ferrari 456 GT as well as many other Rolls Royce and Bentley wagons. Usually built by Pininfarina. Thanks.

There are so many incredible cars around the world that have never been seen or have never been driven. I work at Brabus and I get to see a lot of crazy cars and crazy customers who tell stories about their cars. You wouldn’t believe where In the world you can find insane car collections that nobody knows about. For example some of the poorest countries in Africa have Paganis, Koenigsegg or Bugatti’s. Or Turkmenistan, Tadschikistan or even our dear friend Kim Jong-un in North Korea. You wouldn’t believe it.

Great video, amazing graphics! I love your style of graphics. 👍

The F40 is my favourite car of all time, great video 👍

What an amazing story.

best video ever made, thank you truely

DK Engineering are literally down the road from me & some of the stuff you get to see driving around is astonishing.

More videos like this love them!

Moment of silence for the F40 that burned down 2 days ago

These are the best videos CT create.

I love this series. Great work.

Seeing as we're talking about Ferraris, I can't wait for you to get onto doing the 250s ESPECIALLY THE 250 GTOs

2:25 how is that "borderline deranged"

Great vid 👍🏼

i love these videos! kepp up the great work!

Make a video about the BMW M3 GTR Street Edition cars that we never saw.

Imagine going to a foreign country find a building in the middle of now where flicking the lights on and seeing 8 Ferrari f40s just sitting there gives me goosebumps thinking about it

Love these episodes!

such a great series keep it strong

The F40 still looks gorgeous today! Change my mind.

2:30 "Borderline deranged" 480 lbs ft of torque. The 1992 Viper made 465 from the factory. In 1996, the Viper made 490 in stock trim -- by the last gen it was up to 600. That was all from a naturally aspirated motor.

These kind of videos should be on the 'Car Trivia" playlist.

Quality video. Good work.

So we are going to ignore The fact that he said “The Emerald Green F40 with Emerald Green Interior.”😍 Sounds luxury 1:43

About month ago saw "stock" F40 on M4 entering London,one thing is for sure,nothing about that car is stock or ordinary,to see it on the road is a extreme spectacle.

these vids are sick asf, please do more!

Cool vid, thanks for posting

I had a giant poster of this car on my wall as a kid, it was red though.

Perhaps in 100 years time they'll make a guest appearance at a car show. The future deserves its fair share of wonder.

Waiting for more! Maybe stories are not making us happy but still learning these details make me happy. Cheers.

As much as i don't like cars being stored in garages for their entire life and never getting used to their intended potential, in the Sultan of Brunei's case, i think that is what makes them so special. The fact that no one outside of Pininfarina and the Brunei royal family have ever seen these cars, and having literally zero miles on them makes them so much cooler. The best part about the car collection in Brunei is not only the vast expanse and rarity of it but also the entire secrecy surrounding it, just makes for a great research project.

Damn i would love that black lm with the red strip ;)

The 'zero' mileage reading is bullshit, every F40 has it's factory test track mileage on it. I have driven one of those RHD F40's and it was a terrible conversion, it would have been better to have left them LHD, it simply did not work out ergonomically.

Loving these Brunei vidoes! Id like to suggest a future video on his fleet of the Dauer 962 LM's

Love these style of videos

Brunei even has one of the most rare r32 gtr aswell.

Imagine being able to afford a couple of f40s!! I cant even afford a few beers right now

I’ve saw a right hand drive Ferrari F40 in Singapore many years ago, I didn’t believe my eyes. Good job Car Throttle👍🏽

Love this type of video More like this please 👍

A moment of silence for the F40 that caught fire in Monoco. 😢

If I had that many I’d keep 2 or 3 and drive the rest, I wish that was the story, sad really..

Fascinating. Please keep make these videos

I’ve never been upset at how short a video was

I am literely crying right now.

when i was this early ethan had a prius

Amazing bit of research. Stuff of legend.

Paolo! I spent the Nurburgring 24hr race with him and Glickenhaus in 2012. Super cool guy does cars for work but will talk a lot about his enthusiasm for the outdoors.

"Radio" will do fine, "Radio player" just sounds odd.

I feel for the cars. It's like they are trapped in some kind of concentration camp. I can only hope someday, someone (some people) will freed these cars from this prison and will someday see the daylight and feel the road. Then I hope someone will make a anime series about "Saving the cars in Brunei"...lol

James and John are 2 of the best in the thr world dare i say it. Spoke to him both in the best. Great people to work with and have endless info on cars like these🙌

I am happy that they still exist

Girl: Billie Eilish is so sad Boy: no it isn't Girl I bet you have never experienced real sadness in your life Me: have you watched this video

Ferrari shouldn't sell to people who lock them in grages

I think it’s a gift to our future automotive world to have these cars virtually time-capsuled.

These are the most cool videos you make

Can we get a second episode on the McLaren F1s?

this is why the f40 looks sad... knowing that his brothers are locked away in prison since birth

I imagine these cars being found after an apocalypse like in the movies. Inside a garage below somewhere all dusty but still brand new, never used and roads so messed up that you cant drive them anymore.

Hey I just wanted to support you so I watched a full 1 minute 30 seconds add for you.keep up the good word

There’s a forest green f40 that I’ve seen on insta before what’s the story with that

I read "abandoned f40s" i click when i also read my country i click even faster.

Can we take a moment to appreciate the in-depth analysis of this legendary car?

please keep making videos like this

Me: can't afford a second hand Astra Meanwhile in Brunei * 8 unused Ferrari F40s * (bruh moment)

Im glad, let him have as many cars as he wants, we can all dream about being him one day

More of these videos plz !!!

Finally another entertaining video
