Secret Mercedes Museum - the ultimate Benz Car Cave? Jonny Smith is invited for a tour of a stunning private museum entirely populated by classic Mercedes. The man behind this beautiful obsession is Danny Lucas who, as you can imagine, is nothing short of Mercedes mad. Despite being called Lucas, he's clearly more of a Bosch electrics man. This place is not a public museum, it is a completely private Car Cave that exists in plain sight behind blank roller shutter doors.
Thanks for stopping by The Late Brake Show.
Danz Benz is the name of his collection, and Danny has channelled his adoration for classic Mercs and business of shop fitting to create a space like Jonny has never seen outside of Stuttgart. Open the door and we are greeted by resin floors, vivid spotlights and rows of curated cars from the 1960s to the 1990s. Actually, the earliest is 1880s, because Danny even has a functioning replica of the first car - the patented 1886 Carl Benz “vehicle powered by a gas engine".
Please see the chapters for each vehicle featured in this episode.
This was a very special shoot, because Jonny was granted full access to the museum for the day. Danny's enthusiasm for the cars he grew up seeing and aspiring to own bled through in every conversation. Each car in the museum was chased down and bought for its condition or backstory. Danny didn't go down the predictable AMG path, instead he picked immaculate examples with odd specifications or back stories.
He has Sir Stirling's 1990 SL500, the founder of the Jubilee Clip's S-class 450SEL, a 1970s SLC rally car that rekindled Merc's racing division (more of which in a future episode), a line of early SLs and a mezzanine full of '80s Mercs. This is how many of us dream of presenting our worshipped favourite machines, yet Danny ensures they are all on the button and road legal. He can even get any of them out within 20 minutes.
The museum has glass cabinets with early MB artefacts and accessories. It felt like someone had bought the Stuttgart Mercedes museum and shipping it back to Kent. See this link for a tour www.danzbenz.com/collection

Absolutely beautiful, and I’m so pleased the owner allowed this museum to be featured! I currently own two Mercedes, a 350ML suv with 200K miles. Looks and Drives like it’s close to new. The other is a 1997 500SL with 108K drives perfectly everything works, looks nearly perfect. My other Mercedes in around 1994 was a 1984 300D with 300K miles when I finally donated it to the kidney foundation. MB is a wonderful car manufacturer. If you do the routine maintenance, they last literally decades.

It threw me off that such a Merc expert kept calling the first-gen SL an 'SLR' when the ones he referenced weren't -Rs... the only SLR Gullwing would be the Uhlenhaut Coupé which is a priceless one-off. Well, two-off. Regardless of that, though, this is a really remarkable space with some brilliant and unexpected examples lurking around. Having been to Stuttgart (and MB World Brooklands) he's got the aesthetic exactly right. Really cool.

The addiction is strong! My uncle had a brand new 300D manual in 1984 when I was 12. B560SRJ in petrol blue with velour, 4x windows, centre armrest, tinted glass, factory towbar with self leveling suspension. An amazing car. Spent many an hour polishing it up after fly spattered journeys to Frejus. One year he towed us on a rope 900 miles home from Aix-en-Provence. Loved that car. I now have a mint W123 200D and an average condition W123 200. They are expensive to keep in good nick as Mercedes want daft money for parts now. You get in it and you are back in 1984 again 😊 Also owned a couple of 190E models and the holy grail for me, an E500 Limited. Very addictive marque!!

Is good to see humble examples like the W201, C124 and low specs cars getting proper care in a collection. Those models usually are abused or left to rot because they are worth nothing, so is good to know someone is preserving these kind of cars. By the way, there is no doubt these cars are driven, you can see a little bit of brake dust in some wheels.

Never thought touring a museum on-line could be so exciting. My dad had a rare 1957 220S (if I recall correctly) and we drove to the city in a 1963 190D for years. To the data of the 190E 'Baby Benz', I believe it had 122 bhp, not 322 as shown at 35:23. I can feel and share the love for special, older cars as expressed here wonderfully.

My first car was a Mercedes 190E and ever since then I've become obsessed with old Mercedes. I've always thought that just one company can provide you with every type of vehicle from truck to supercar to off road to any type of motoring. My favourites are the original G-Wagen, the Uni-Mog and obviously the 190E!

As a student in boarding school in Los Cardales, Buenos Aires, Argentina, the owner would sometimes take a few of us city people (BsAs proper) in his brand new 560 SEC. It was the fastest car I was ever in as a non-adult - the seat belt tensioner would pull you back in the seat when it got speedy, i remember hitting around over 245 KPH.

Fascinating to watch his passion and see his face light up when he speaks and it triggers a memory of his earlier life. Also wonderful that Mercedes know of the collection and clearly respect it. Could literally watch hours of this sort fo thing, well done Jonny et al!

Great video Jonny, loved seeing this collection and hearing the stories behind the cars. Would be great to see some more videos of the cars you own, maybe go through them all in one episode?

What an amazing video, and a top top bloke. What an incredible thing to achieve. The level of detail he went into explaining each car was very much appreciated. Owning a R129...I understand his passion and love for them.

Reminds me of a ceo of a construction company, uk. He bought a new merc 600sl r129. drove it for a few days, didnt like it went out bought a new porsche 911. That merc, ultra low miles is still in his garage under a car cover, i last saw it in 2015.

Here in Australia we love the W126, Ive personally had 3, and still have 2 of them. They were iconic then, and are still.

Johnny is clearly impressed, and he's seen a lot. For good reason, it must have been so cool to go back in time with the story of every car while seeing each one in person. Danny is enjoying being the host and his passion and pride are contagious. Thanks for the episode!

I remember seeing the the 90’s Mercedes convertible parked in Edgbaston Birmingham, outside of an Advertisement company. They had been just launched in the uk and it was silver grey and private plated. Amazing memory

Amazing video! Great collection from the times Mercedes Benz made fantastic cars. Read an article about Danny in Mercedes Enthusiast last year, so was great to see and hear Danny's story and cars. My dad had two S124's in 86-87, so this is really my era of MB!
