A new high-security car "bunker" for the super rich has opened - and it's already brimming with luxury motors.

Shy Automotive is a 50,000-square-foot car warehouse just off the A23 in Bolney, near Haywards Heath.

The firm says it offers the best "care, security, and discretion" for owners of top-value cars for £100 per week, per car.

Clients have the assurance of 24-hour security with 40 CCTV cameras - as well as required fingerprint recognition to enter the site.

Each one of the 590 cars the facility is home to is fitted with dual heat-activated sprinklers to protect them from any fires - and humidity levels are maintained at between 48 and 55 per cent to prevent any moisture, rust, or corrosion from damaging a vehicle.

Upon arrival, a record is created for each supercar - with its condition meticulously captured through Shy's custom camera array.

The vehicle then undergoes "thorough" preparation before it is secured on its own dedicated 2.2m x 4.8m "bed" on a galvanised steel rack.

Each car will have its own armoured power supply for required battery conditioning.

Clients can access their vehicles at any time Monday to Friday between 9am and 5pm, or, out-of-hours upon request.

They can also make use of the luxurious offerings inside - from the fully-fitted kitchen, to the 75-inch smart TV with an integrated Sonos sound system, to a boardroom fitted for meetings or other corporate events.

Co-founders said 'You wouldn't put a priceless artwork in a barn, so why would youCo-founders said 'You wouldn't put a priceless artwork in a barn, so why would you do it with a car? (Image: SHY Automotive / SWNS) Daniel Wood and Desmond Boughton, co-founders of Shy Automotive, said their facility was founded on a single question: "You wouldn’t put priceless artwork in a barn, so why would you do it with a car?"

Mr Wood said: "At Shy Automotive, we understand that every vehicle we store is more than just a mode of transport; it’s a treasured asset, often with significant sentimental and financial value.

"We are proud to offer a storage solution that truly respects the value of these remarkable machines."

Mr Boughton added: "We created Shy Automotive to address a critical gap in the market for secure, high-end car storage."
