- Welcome to the Strøjer Collection in Denmark, home to some exceptional cars, including the most famous Zenvo in the world! From Formula 1 racecars, to beautiful classics, via hypercars and extraordinary Ferraris, let's take a look around the Strøjer Samlingen.
While travelling across Europe on the Where's Shmee tour, we are making our way towards Zenvo to see my TSR-S in assembly, so naturally a stop by the wonderful Strøjer Collection, which just so happens to house the most famous of Zenvos is a must. While a private collection and not open for the public, the Strøjer Samlingen operates as a venue for meetings, conferences and other purposes, with the added bonus of being surrounded by over 100 amazing cars.
This particular Zenvo ST1 became so famous after appearing on Top Gear a decade ago, when unfortunately the car suffered an incendiary incident that the production team didn't hold back from publicising. However, it was of course then fully restored and put to correct working order and is now privately owned and residing in this collection. As Zenvo Chassis #5, it also sits opposite Koenigsegg CC8S chassis #5, in a garage that contains so much more.
Whether it's the Bugattis of old and new, the Ferraris similarly, or even the Aston Martin Vantage V8 and Vanquish from James Bond movies, there's so much to see. The Strøjer Collection showcases a wonderful variety of cars of all ages, even including a number that have been owned by members of the Danish Royal Family, through to the current and future monarchs.
Thank you so much to the Strøjer Samlingen team for this opportunity to visit and take a look around this wonderful garage! You can find out more about the cars and facility here:

I was working on Top Gear with the Pyro Crew with the Zenvo when it caught fire.....and no it was not the pyro crew that caused the issue !!!. The car was awesome, but had many issues. The clutch burned out, the headlight leaked, the rear brake bound and caught fire and it was touch fragile, but what a beauty of a car. Stig was telling us how difficult the ST1 was to drive as half through a corner, the turbo lights up, dumping several hundred horses and would catch out most drivers. The was early doors, so do hope Zenvo has addressed these issue as the car is stunning.
I doubt it. How many Zenvo customers are gonna actually push them?
@@Kronos0999 how many zenvo customers are there
@@amsrocks emotional damage
@@Kronos0999 judging by the price either all or none
Who was the stig?
Little history on Jørgen Strøjer Hansen.
Jørgen is the 5th generation of Strøjer Tegl (Strøjer Bricks) founded around 1850 it was handed over to him by his father in 1984. In 2021 Jørgen handed over the company to his son Joachim Strøjer Hansen. The Strøjer collection was founded by Jørgen who has been collecting cars for over 40 years.
Great info. My father tried to sell him his Triumph TR7 about 25 years ago. Strøjer wasn't interested though, not exotic enough apparently :)
@@LarsAgerbk lool funny car tho imo
@@TrueVengeance_ kind of. He got a TR8 later and then upgraded the 3.5 V8 to a 4 liter V8. That was more fun :)
You must have a photographic memory my man the way u go through the cars talking about there history like you know them intimately…when you must be just remembering what you’ve been told fairly recently..very impressive 👏
Hehe, you are correct, I'm very lucky to remember things this way
Im very impressed by your Strøjer pronounciation, not many foreigners can pronounce it that well Tim
What a collection! 😍 So many interesting gems 💎
👏🏻👍🏼 thank you so much for showing us this amazing collection. Very cool vlog 🙏🏼 .. can’t wait to see your zenvo
WOW!! That's a collection to end all! Don't think I've seen such an amazing set of cars in one place. All my taste to.
beautiful collection, and a wonderful presentation. You've come a long way since the early days Shmee, you've become a great host for your own car show.
So cool to shout out Seen Through Glads when reaching the 360 Challenge Stradale, you’re a legend Tim! Not only a great content creator but such a humble person as well!
I was just about to comment the same. Loved that. Instantly think of Sam when a challenge stradale pops up
I can indeed say this is an absolutely insane collection as I’ve been there. It’s like you can never get bored, and the cars are just insane.
Tremendous collection. So many of the red cars too. Jaw dropping. Thanks for taking us along. If you haven't been to the French national collection in Mulhouse, you must. It's huge.
dazzling... crazy how much one can collect..
I enjoyed the small museums and car showrooms in Sweden. Random rooms at a Moose reserve, to side rooms in the Husqvarna museum. You have some great coverage and access, thank for sharing.
I like alot how each room has its own style I would never get bored walking around this place 🤩🔥
The collection of Ferraris alone in there is just crazy 🤯 but to have the 250 gto in your collection along side them is another level of crazy👏
Funny how just that 250 gto is worth several times of everything Shmee owns 😂
Crazy right!?
The 250 gto in this collection is sadly a replica.
@@emilbergman3296 A 250 gto is worth more than even Manny Koshbin's collection I think.
Until today I thought Jay Leno has got the greatest collection of all time. This is truly breathtaking!
I was about to say it reminds me of Jay Leno's garage. Must be nice to have that kind of money.
@@breakingcycles741 must be nice to have started collecting over 50 years ago.
funny thing as well is that it's in Denmark, notorious for very high taxes on cars. Must have taken a lot of patience and money to build it up over the years. Come to think of it, I don't know why I haven't ever been there when it's in my country. I better change that.
I’ve been lucky enough to experience the collection myself a couple of months ago - it’s absolutely amazing! Fantastic collection!!
Shmee you know so much about cars. Thats so entertaining to See you go throw All this collections
Shmee150 Absolutely Incredible Video I think the Strojer Collection is Absolutely Incredible and I'm glad the team let you share your experience and I can't wait to see your Zenvo TSR-S update
Ferrari 250 GTO just casually sitting there
Such a magnificent car
Its not one of the original cars
@@rasmusjrgensen8602 That's a shame still such a beautiful and significant car
@@dsp9005 yea, it was build using spare parts from the original cars
@@Kigoz4Life probaly like 400k
THE BEST Collection I have seen so far .... just Brilliant effort made.
10:39 That’s a Group C2 (called LMP2 today) URD, with the engine transplanted from a BMW M1 Procar.
I know because, among other races, my late father completed the 1986 Le Mans in it, and before that drove the M1 Procar from where the engine was taken.
It brings me a lot of joy to see it being so well taken care of.
Truly an amazing collection, just shows the love for cars....good thing I had a bib on while watching this video..😍😍😍
You don't half get about abit.
Good to see you using that beautiful car collection of yours. The travel element of the vlog coupled with supercars works Tim.
Cheers for taking us along.
That’s the best collection I have seen. I know there are others maybe more HyperCars but that has such a range and reason for them all. Not just throwing money at it, thought has been put into it, and boat load of cash.
I Have Never Seen Shmee look soo Flustered definitely a Supercar Overload lol
When i was there during an open house a few years ago did not seem anywhere near this stacked.. .. Who knew selling bricks could land you in metal this special?.. Truly an amazing tour.. As a dane, thank you for the coverage.. Can't wait to see the Zenvo.. (small note for the description.. Samlingen means The Collection.. So you've essentially written The The Strøjer Collection.. The Strøjer Samling, would be proper danish in context)
One of my favorite Ferrari cars is the 1957 testa rossa
Maaaaann…I love that car
Nice vid as always
Wow! Such a cool place 😍 thanks for the video!
Very cool to see you here in Denmark :) I never knew about this amazing collection, but I will definately try to find more info and see when the next guided tour is ;)
The BMW Le Mans is a big part of the danish Le Mans history. It was driven by Jens Winther at his first Le Mans. That was the first time a danish driver competed at Le Mans:)
Oh wow, that's great, thanks for the info
i got to sit in it some months ago lol
Really really enjoyed this episode, keep up the good work!
The collection is crazy love the vids Tim 💯
Shmee I've been watching a while now. I love the name. I love your spec on the Ford gt brought me here and stayed since. Good stuff.
As a Danish guy,. i wanna say how impressed i am at how well you pronounced "Strøjer samlingen" its a pretty difficult word for any person that isnt from scandinavia. :D
UR a content monster! Just churning quality content out daily, well done!
Funny reverence to Jos Verstappen. Even here n Holland we make jokes about Jos' excursions in to the gravel 🙂
Just wow. Will put this place on my bucket list
WOW !!! Blew the doors off w that one. What a collection !!!!
Some collection! Not sure I could resist the urge to rearrange the collection!
Wow. Crazy collection
Absolutely mind blowing!
The owner of the collection is a really cool guy. I was working roadside assistance, and was dropping off a more regular car at the collection. He came out and we chatted a bit. I spotted the Veyron up in the window and said to him
"When I'm done unloading this, I'll go ahead and load up the Veyron and head on out!"
He replied with
"Oh, that old piece of sh*t?! Yea, you can have that!" hahaha
Really cool that danish people like myself are able to own cars like these even though out prices are double the us. When living in denmark you never see old vintage cars like these or even “normal” ferarris. The only time i saw an old limo driven was when the royal family drove past my house and actually waved to me. But really cool video Tim, and know that you are always welcome in Denmark
I love this collection! Fun to see the Zenvo
That's an awesome collection of cars that are history
I know there are name plates at the front, but I bet Shmee still could go through that entire inventory and know them all instantly. Such a brilliant guy
This video should’ve been a lot longer than 17 min and I just started watching with the amount of incredible cars in this collection
Great collection I love the presentation in addition
Great collection. I like its so many cars from diferent years. Nice video
Never seen a collection of a GTO, not sure what I was expecting, but this is certainly special
tim thats a very fine collection of exotic and classic cars good video.
My all time favourite:
Ferrari 250 gto and bugatti type 57
One thing to remember is that in Denmark, the registration tax on expensive cars is 150%. Have a lovely time in my home country, Shmee :)
I think its safe to say most of these cars aren't registered because they will never see the road anyway
Alle of them, are Ready to drive... 2 times a year Thers is a op en house for the public... and id you are lucky the owner drive around i some for the Really ind cars
Laughing in 300% luxury car import tax in my country.
In malaysia, its 300% for anything not made locally. The local cars are terrible so youll want something european either way. Road tax is also insane for anthing above 2.6 litres. Dont get me started on insurance
What an amazing collection cheers
I was younger and didn't remember the fire story with the ST1 but remember it being on that Top Gear episode quite vividly because it was the same episode they took the small engined cars to Chernobyl it seems. In the one where they did a 24 hour race round Silverstone in a 3 series BMW, the Ascari A10 was there and I was getting the two cars mixed up in my head for a bit
The zenvo looks lovely in just the one colour and the orange suits it very much awesome it looks better without the mad flappy wing in my opinion same with the egg similar spec to your Ferraris understated colours on a mad car awesome Truly awesome
I was Lucky enough to visit the Strøjer collection 2 months ago and i loved it
Such a cool place!
Loved the video too
Amazing video!
Hi Shmee I'm guys!! Love the content lately, keep up the great work!
Hi guys, thanks for watching!
Brilliant video Tim! I think you should add a BMW Z8 to the collection. 🔥
Differenciation!! love you Shmee!!
Ooohh my gawd .. i could spend a week just looking round all them cars and sitting in them going Brummmm Brummmm ... :)
Wow what a car collection! Mind blowing
Absolutely bonkers collection!
I’d say this has gotta be one of the best collections
only one word explains this collection , SURREAL
Was there last summer. Awesome stuff 👍
wow, insane collection and place!
Must agree! Lovely and amazing collection. Glad to see you enjoy it and share it with the world. Was lucky to go there myself last Saturday.
Jørgen himself is so much joy and happiness, too.
Glad you enjoyed it. Awesome place.
These are my fav types of videos
I saw that Top Gear episode with the Zenvo where it caught fire, That was crazy.
The DB5 is my brothers fav car so its cool to see one.
Well now you see it privately owned and as it should be
You should visit “my garage” in Vejle. You cant miss out on it while in denmark! Such a speciel place and the staff will for sure tell you about it.
I remember when that top gear episode first aired instant classic
Man that’s a crazy collection
I love the Ferraris like the 250 GTO and F40. Rare to see the 288 GTO.
I think the building has a fire sprinkler system. Perhaps this is something that needs to be added to the Schmuseum too?
Whoa! Shmee with the shade for Jos Verstappen.
Stunning collection
Awesome!!!
It truly is!
The silver st1 on lenos show is more nostalgic for me, hearing supercharged and turbocharged for the first time
It's amazing how much you know you're cars
He can read ! He obviously knows his cars but like he has said in the past he’s not that much into classic cars so that’s why you can see him reading the cars names sometimes
The name tags are on the ground
Goes to show how big Top Gear was back in the Clarkson, May, and Hammond days to remember stuff 10 years later.
🔥 Collection
haha you're in heaven! Love the passion
As a Dane, I am very happy and proud to see this Danish collection of marvelous cars! Now I just need to visit the place myself ;-) I am looking forward to see videos with your own Zenvo @Shmee150, driving around in beautiful Denmark 🇩🇰 When will you get it?
Der går nok ikke særlig lang tid før. Og når den er samlet skal den jo også gennem diverse checks osv før den er klar til leverance🙂
Har været deroppe i dag det er så fantastisk og det ligner sig selv😍 er så glad for at shmee har set den også
Nice video)
So happy to see the video Tim, I have been waiting ever since I wrote to you on Twitter to go to the Strøjer Collection and since I saw you filming your intro back in wednesday, It was me who was in the orange mail van who b-lined over to the toilet facilities.
Still too bad I didn't get to say hi, but I saw you were filming and didn't want to interupt, but you made up for it with amazing coverage of the cars.
Hope you continue to have a great day!
Haha, so funny! I'm sure you know it all already though, but still what a place to visit
@@Shmee150 Yes an awesome place that I would wholeheartedly recommend anyone interested in cars to visit!
Ps. Thanks for answering so many of my comments over various videos and social platforms, it really made my day!
So crazy love that you post for us makes my day every time you post keep it up man
Glad you enjoy it!
Very cool place to visit!
Amazing..aweosome..cars..
Great Video Shmee!
Thanks!
Blown away is an understatement. The sad part is thinking of new collectors and how unobtainable so many of these cars are now, you'll most likely never see these kind of collections ever again.
Yes, all those air-conditioned man caves with rows of the special operations custom-painted model in the limited run of the heritage model of the Asetto Sportivo Corsa edition of a run-of-the-mill supercar, cynically designed to milk an extra $300k from an ultra-rich buyer, who will never own anything prior to 1990 of interest. This collection has a similar feel to Jay Leno's, but the royalty cars and film cars it unique.
Tax wealth!
That Arrows! 😍
Wow!
That was the BAC Mono at the Birmingham motor show when you had your senna there with the dbs for the show
Hi Tim ,glad you mentioned the xj220 ,other British car CZcamsr would have just walked past it .😉
Really?!
I love your videos
Thank you
However owns this collection, he/she gets it! Such a nice mixture of machinery well displayed.
Wow, what an a collection, you must feel so blessed to be able to experience it in person. The collection blew me away.
Finally you made it.
The STG shoutout 😂👌🏽
