Don Casanova's Garage: A Tour of Unique and Bespoke Cars
As I stepped into Don Casanova's garage, I was immediately struck by the sheer diversity of cars on display. The first car that caught my eye was a Bentley, originally white and baby blue, but with a stunning hand-painted marbled effect that gave it a unique texture. I loved how the coach line and logo were seamlessly integrated into the paint job, creating a truly bespoke look.
The Bentley's interior was also noteworthy, with a tan leather finish that complemented its exterior paintwork perfectly. As I explored the garage, I noticed a few other details that caught my attention, including the clever use of match plates on some of the cars. It's clear that Don Casanova is meticulous about every aspect of his collection.
Next up was a McLaren 650S Spider and a Ferrari F12 Berlinetta, which had undergone a complete customization program to transform them into unique works of art. The McLaren's paintwork, in particular, was impressive – a vibrant volcano yellow that gave the car a bold and eye-catching appearance. Underneath the lacquer, however, was a smooth carbon skin that added an extra layer of depth to the design.
The Ferrari, meanwhile, had been transformed into a stunning Tour de France blue, with a subtle texture that caught the light beautifully. The use of carbon fiber in both cars was also noteworthy – it wasn't just a wrap, but rather a genuine skin that gave the cars their unique appearance. As I moved through the garage, I noticed that these techniques were used consistently across the collection.
One car that really stood out to me was the Rolls-Royce Ghost Extended Series 2, which replaced the Mansory Ghost Series 1 in the collection. It's clear that Don Casanova is always on the lookout for new and exciting cars to add to his collection – and this latest arrival is certainly a showstopper.
But what really made the garage come alive was the sound of the Lamborghini Huracan. I'd seen it before, but never again in this particular garage – and I have to say, it still sent shivers down my spine. The six-and-a-half-liter V12 engine is truly ear-shattering, especially when you consider that it's been tuned for maximum performance.
As I explored the garage further, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation. With so many unique and bespoke cars on display, every visit feels like an adventure – and I'm always eager to see what new surprises Don Casanova has in store. The lighting in the garage is also worth noting, as it really brings out the best in each car.
In fact, I think one of the things that makes this collection so special is the way the cars are presented. Rather than being wrapped or covered up, they're proudly displayed under a brilliant lighting system that showcases their unique features and colors to maximum effect. It's almost like a mini-museum in here – and I can see why Don Casanova has been chosen as one of the most influential car collectors in the world.
If you want to see more of these incredible cars, be sure to check out Don Casanova's link below. And if you're feeling lucky, take a look at the photo gallery from my last visit – it's full of great shots of some amazing cars that I just can't wait to see again.
Lastly, a special mention goes to the sound system in this garage which is truly world-class and has been tuned for maximum performance. The experience of hearing these cars up close is truly breathtaking, so if you ever find yourself near this garage then be sure to take advantage of this and make it a point to visit as many of these cars as possible.
"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhi guys i'm shmee hello and welcome back to the channel where you join me in what i'm gonna say is one of the coolest garages in dubai this is the private car collection of don casanova now i did actually visit about four years ago but since then a few things have changed there are some new additions there are some cars that have changed as well and plenty to talk about as well as just exploring this fantastic garage just take in the lighting here over the top of the mansory aventador and the bugatti veyron 16.4 we have the lounge area behind but we're going to go through all of the cars here which have some very very nice features and details about them as well and i think well for old times sake and you'll see what i mean shortly we're going to be hearing this and believe me when i say it is going to be a little bit bonkers let's check out then don casanova's garage here in dubai just have a look around this fabulous garage and the way that all the cars are presented the garage itself is so spectacular and i'm overwhelmed just like i was the first time i came to visit in how all of this appears from having the bright lights on the ceiling to all the mirrors behind the cars to the high gloss reflective floor surface even the full height floor-to-ceiling windows through towards the lounge area to give a view back here towards the garage that we're going to see in a moment and then of course it's right up my street with so many blue cars making up the collection you might be wondering about the white lamborghini hurricane we'll get to that in a moment but just take a look around at don casanova's garage we have the mansory lamborghini aventador now the last time i came this car was actually orange and it has not been wrapped but completely repainted this is the theme we're going to see as we explore through the garage but it has the wide body package the fixed wing the carbon fiber over the top sections a ridiculous exhaust as well and i suppose we're probably going to be hearing that shortly we get next to the bugatti veyron the 16.4 coupe one of the original bugatti veyrons about 300 of those made of the 450 bugatti veyrons in total and i remember when i first saw this car in blue chrome and pictures of it online just standing out anywhere that it could ever go a really really cool thing then we have the two bentley flying spurs this car was originally white this car was originally baby blue but they now have some significant differences just come and have a look at this we're going to talk about what's going on with the bespoke paint work that's been done to that in a moment too we've got a mclaren 650s spider and there was actually a mclaren 650s when i visited before but it's not the same car despite having a similar design it's not the same car and again painted in blue the ferrari f12 berlinetta there was a 488 gtb in the collection before this also by the way has an actual carbon skin on it not carbon wrap we're going to go into that too there are so many details about all of these cars we've got the rolls royce ghost extended series 2 that replaces the first gen series one and sorry ghost that was here before and then the lamborghini hurricane which is notably different because this is the incognito discreet car to get around dubai well compared to these that is certainly true and if you're out here you definitely see a lot of lamborghini hurricanes out and about on the streets so this is this is just mega but i want to come through and show you the reverse view where we have that how extraordinary to look out through the glass across the cars the chrome of the bugatti veyron the carbon of the mansory aventador the chill-out area on this side sauna screen room for movies and then this view into the garage that's just mega and so much inspiration from this for what i would like to do in my garage to have almost that viewing out in towards the garage itself slightly separating the accommodation to the car space just on the other side i think this is this is really really really nice so let's have a have a run through some of the cars and i'm just quickly going to say that here we have a lovely selection of the various keys this is the key to the mansory aventador now like i said this car used to be orange it's not been wrapped it has been repainted and in fact to show you this if we come around to the driver's side now just pop open this door you will see on the inside of the door the original orange paint it was masked out to keep a touch of its originality with that line that you have around the door brothers just on the inside of it with the new choice of the blue paint work to match with some of the others but that's that's really well a color right up my street this is the original i think it's a rancho argos that you could have on the car or see matching with the orange details on the inside of the event store by mansory the highlighted accent around the central console for example the shift paddle accent you can see again at the side really i mean i call it supercar and i think it always will be the mansory event there are a few details as well on the outside again the orange on the logos around the wheels the brakes and also these accents which were added to the carbon uh vents at the side they didn't originally used to be there on the car themselves but we're gonna be hearing that in a moment before we do that though let's come back to the table of the keys where here we have well i guess we could go to the bugatti veyron i'm just going to head back through and show you as we go around obviously wraps are hard to maintain especially chrome wraps a massive massive challenge to keep these looking good over time especially in the heat and considering the heat that some of these cars get off as well which is why the decision was made for don casanova to paint the cars in blue so this was painted this was painted this was painted this was painted this was painted and that's original that's rolls royce i think salamanca blue would be added gold for the upper sections but let's come now to the bentleys here like i said originally a white car originally a baby blue car but i absolutely love this this whole process of bespoke customization of the cars exactly the kind of thing i do with some of the schmima bills but i want to talk a bit about this now this is hand painted to give a marbled effect so if we come towards the rear pillar of the car here you can see it much much clearer quite hard to pick this up on camera a discreet texture almost pattern underneath the lacquer but another very nice detail about this and having had it done is that all of these lines for example the coach line and the logo here are actually underneath the lacquer there's no edge to this it's completely seamlessly integrated into the paint and what a lovely paint color it is as well the grey car has the more traditional finish both cars have a tan interior obviously the previous gen flying spurs but looking great when they're a pair especially when you look at k 1475 and j 1475 i like my match plates as well so that is a pretty nice detail about those next up we have the mclaren 650s spider and the ferrari f12 berlinetta now the last time i came to visit don casanova's garage we did have a mclaren on a ferrari in this section of the garage but it wasn't either of these in fact there was a 650s which has been replaced by a newer 650s and there was a 488 gtb which has now become an f12 berlinetta these cars were respectively volcano yellow and tour de france blue before going through the complete customization program and you can see a lot of carbon fiber which is actually a carbon skin it's not something i've paid too much attention to before but this is not a carbon fiber wrap it is a skin of carbon fiber completely smooth to the touch and underneath the lacquer which means it's again smooth over towards the blue paintwork which creates a really cool look and gave the opportunity to present a unique style as well so here over the bonnet coming over the roof towards this distinct layout again out towards that lip that you have at the very back on the f12 a few red accents and more carbon fiber again along the sides of it and around the rear back here too and then on the 650s similarly over the roof through towards the engine bay covers that side area and also the design that was on the bonnet which previously on the orange car that was in the collection before was actually the vinyl wrap and in this case some yellow accents to pay tribute to its original look before very very nice details on those then we get to the rolls-royce ghost extended series 2 which replaces the mansory ghost series 1 that was in the collection before there is still a phantom and a drop head as part of the collection and of course the lamborghini hurricane as we mentioned which is not exactly a bad way to get around under normal circumstances but this this is just mega and we've not even yet taken a listen to this this is a little bit of deja vu the last time i took a listen to this car in this garage it made me jump quite a bit but i think it is time to see if it happens again let's hear the startup of the mansory aventador my words well it happened it was very very noisy i probably just damaged my hearing that's not the best thing in the world that was ridiculous i've had a moment to get my hearing back then after the mansory aventador's startup and i tell you what's quite funny is how similar that was to the last time on the channel we heard this car in this garage like i said that was pretty similar the sound of that mansouri aventador the six and a half liter v12 is just ear shattering especially in here but what a special place to see the cars to see all the new looks with the painted blue finishes and paint is always so much nicer than having cars that are wrapped that's the reason behind changing them all to give them painted finish which under these lights gives me so much inspiration as well for this museum in the future the look of brightly colored cars under amazing lighting in a garage is just extraordinary and this is a very perfect way of going about it you really see more of the lines of the cars and the colors and with the shimmy meals and the direction that i've been going you can probably see how if i get some good lighting into the unit that is going to work in the future as well for now though an awesome place i'll pop down casanova's link down below do go go and follow to see more of the cars in this collection but that's it for now thank you very much for watching as always guys i'll see you again very soon cheers
