Blimey, bit of a shame! Looks like it could yield some useful spares, the outer panels look okay from here. That boot mounted spare kit is popular with Ebayers, not a fan myself.

I would but I know as soon as I did the bloke who's been on at me to take away his Mk1 granny Ghia would ring and want it moved straight away, you know just after i've filled my spare parking space  And TBH I don't like em, they're OK, but hey let it go round the track, I really don't care, at my storage there are 20 odd of em, more than enough spares cars to keep the club going for a few years  I might pop round and let the 4 P6 owners local to me it's there, if it's still there by now that is, Redcorn the local DVLA firm are usually pretty quick on the scene, especialy if it's banger fodder I did grab 2 Morry Minor Fr doors that was also dumped there, if anyone wan't em i'll get some pics, free for collection only. |

With a SORN liability date of 01.05.10 the owner obviously hasn't 'forgotten' about the car as he renewed the SORN just over a month ago. Taking the car or parts from it would obviously be theft . . .

Id take it away for safekeeping. No point letting the kids vandalise it to death.

That's the risk you take when you dump a car in a disused garage and then don't go and check on it for 3 years, if i moved it it would be for safe keeping "obv" but i know the bloke and it would end up in my yard for years. If one of the local council removers take it away (leagally as they remove untaxed cars) it'd end up round the track, mind you having said that Brantwood breakers in Tottenham have had 3 Mk1 cortinas they took away 3 yeras ago and slowly been selling bits of em but they will get raced eventually. I have told a few of his mates, they might let him know it's there, i only know what block he lives in not the number and i aint seen him since i put it there 3 years ago, probably cos he aint paid me for taking it there so you can guess i'm not exactly over enthusiastic, i've done more than enough just thought it was a strange siight nowdays |

2 litre P6 is not everyones favourite
if you know the bloke - why not offer him 50 quid, take a load of spares for fleabay, and sell the shell to a racer
quick profit, and its you maiking the cash, rather than the untaxed squad
