All of this could be yours for somewhere north of £5m.

I first read that as £5 mil for some Corgi toys!

I just hope the collection doesn't end up in a private collection, never to be seen by the eyes of the general public again.

Way over £5m for the lot, by the looks of it: [url= http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/20934/ ]http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/20934/[/url]

£2.9m for the C-type, £2.6m for the D-type, £1.8m for the transporter - if I'm reading that right!

I had the Corgi transporter and cars. No idea where they went to, sadly, but that collection is incredible.
Maybe Nick Mason might buy it...
