Mr. Den Hartogh passed away in 2010, and in 2016 his museum had to close down due to his children retiring and the museum needing an upgrade. Although several vehicles have been for sale before the museum closing down, the plan is to sell the collection as a whole. The collection can still be visited on appointment for groups of 20 or more people. So it is very much a dormant museum, waiting for the collection to be sold to a new owner.

Latest news is that Bonhams will auction the entire collection. The auction is set for June 23, 2018.
