Film fanatic shows off £400,000 collection of cars including one from Ghostbusters

A movie and motoring fan has a £400,000 collection of famous vehicles.

Peter Dale, 42, proudly poses with his cars from Ghostbusters, Starsky & Hutch, Knight Rider and his favourite Reliant Regal van from sitcom Only Fools and Horses.

Dad-of-one Peter, from Moss Side, Manchester, often takes them to the supermarket.

The online retailer has three of the yellow three wheeled vans from the famous sitcom available to hire and Del Boy David Jason has driven one.

He said: “I can’t just leave the cars locked up in the warehouse all of the time so I do drive them around.

“I buy the cars for a fraction of what they are worth as they often need building and restoring I may buy a car for £10,000 but then the value increases to £50,000.

“I have seen an Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters sell for £200,000.

“It gets the most attention.”
