Uday explained that the site in Namur, Belgium, used to be a Ford dealership and the majority of the models present were from the American brand.

The most common cars in the haul were Transit vans, beloved of Britain's white van men, and the Ford Fiesta, which was consistently the UK's favourite car until it was discontinued in 2023.

Uday's video shows that, while some of the motors had "seen better days", many were still in pristine condition and almost untouched from when they would have been on sale.

He said: "Ah the Ford Transit van.

"The good old ones from the 2000s.

"I found this amazing, I think 'garage' is the right word for it - maybe 'junkyard'.

"It was once a Ford dealership but now they just hoard up all the good old classics."

However, it wasn't just a smorgasbord of Ford, with some other major manufacturers and even some rarer models on show.

These included a Mercedes SL from the '90s, which can still sell for upwards of £20,000 today.

Likewise, he came across a run-down Bentley Arnage which, in good condition, could fetch up to £40,000.

There was even what looked to be a retro Mini and a vintage Jeep 4x4, though both were partially covered by tarpaulin.

Sadly, many of the motors on the site were in a bad way, with a few clearly having been involved in head-on crashes.

Others had been gutted, with seats and equipment ripped out, and almost everything was covered in dust and grime.

Uday added: "The cars I saw in the junkyard are very interesting because they each have a story.

"Being in that junkyard felt like walking down memory lane.

"Most of the cars present in that junkyard were from the 90s and 2000s."
