Heartbreaking to see some of those cars being absorbed into the undergrowth.
If you ever see my old E28 528i in any of these places I'd love to be reunited with it.
BMW 528i reg no PIJ 1771.

Amazing and shameful.
Some rare cars rusting away there.
When did you last see any of them on the roads?
It just goes to show how little value older cars have nowadays,the government and the scrappage scheme have seen off loads of otherwise roadworthy vehicles.
In another 20/30 years time what will be the upcoming classics and retro cars I wonder?

Great pics thanks for sharing, shame all those old cars have been left to rot like that, mind you i suppose when they were left there they were neither rare nor interesting. Today id love any of them in road worthy condition especially those round headlight Ladas and rear engined Skoda's, quite like all the old French stuff too  |
