No battery tenders?

Understood, but how do they keep the batteries charged? Being that every car is on tire savers, they don't seem to move very often and I see no electrical infrastructure anywhere near a car that indicates they keep the cars on battery tenders. Just curious.

Dream Car Garage! Legendary old BMWs

Chris Harris did a piece on Top Gear and they found the ultimate BMW / car guys garage. Look at some of these cars. I have never seen half of these in real life, and I didn't know some of these existed tbh.

Wow, just wow

I’ve been drooling over photos from that collection for a few weeks. Didn’t know there was a video of it.

It’s the closest thing to a perfect collection ive ever seen

Impressive. Loved seeing all the bad boy Benzes. But it's missing some classics from the VW group though!

This was rad and should have been 4x as long. Hopefully there's a part 2.

Hard to pick one .. that dark gray B7 turbo is probably what I'd go for.

Yeah they should have battery tenders. They should be running and driving. Low mileage examples but they don't look like garage queens.

I wanted a Starion when I was growing up and it was because of the shape and those wheel arches.

What I'm saying is that they probably took them all off for the filming of the segment and put them back on when they wrapped production. That's what battery tender wranglers do.

My uncle dropped me off at high school in his Starion once. I thought it looked cool, but I had no idea how cool it was until the juniors and seniors started drooling all over it. #coolsingleuncle

They must have paid staff maintaining these vehicles.
