A FLEET of luxury supercars – including a super-rare Ferrari – will be sold off after the owner “left the country”.
A pricey collection of luxury motorbikes is owned by a “sports car-obsessed” industrialist who left them gathering dust in a Belgian warehouse.

The collection includes five Ferrari Testaros, which gained widespread fame after appearing in the hit TV series Miami Vice – which are expected to sell for a fantastic £213,000 each.
The rarest of the lot, the 1970s Ferrari 365 GT4 BB, one of only 367 ever produced, is expected to fetch more than £300,000.
The 10-cylinder engine of this classy car was developed almost directly from a Formula 1 racing car and has a top speed of almost 300 km/h.
Xavier Molenaar, of Oldtimerfarm, which specializes in classic cars, said: “It may be the only one in the world in this exceptional unrestored condition.”
Others for sale include another 16 Ferraris and six Porches, said to be from the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s.
Among the Porsches was a Porsche 911, as well as rare cooled Turbo and S models.
According to representatives of Oldtimerfarm, the owner is “media shy” and wants to “remain anonymous”.
The collection will sell for millions of pounds and eagle-eyed classic car enthusiasts should keep an eye out as local reports claim the supercars will be sold to individual clients.
And, to convince buyers that the dusty supercars are ready for the road – Oldtimerfarm, based in Aalter, Belgium, restored them to perfect driving condition.
This is not the first time that a luxury motor has been discovered after seemingly being abandoned.
Earlier this month, a car dubbed the “world’s rarest city car” was discovered abandoned by the side of the road.
It was discovered by self-proclaimed “crappy old car” enthusiast, James Dorrell, who was tipped off by followers about how rare the car he found was when they posted engine clips online.
And another person found a classic Rolls Royce parked in the driveway of an abandoned mansion.
Then the car enthusiast explained in a video clip: “Yesterday on the way home I noticed this Rolls-Royce parked down the street from my cousin’s house, so I decided to take a walk.”
