Let's see the abandoned ones....

[will]

I'll get a better pic of this in time as it ain't too far from me



Down the same road as the Capri is the Bimmer which has not moved for a long time but possible a daily ny the Capri standards

[skinnylew]

Will i house sat 2 doors up from that Capris. You think that's bad you should see the mini Clubman behind the gates, truely terrible state. He won't sell though, long term 'project' nice enough guy though..

[will]

Aha, got you now then Tim.
You just know by the gate that somethings gonna be lurking behind. Capri looks well gone but has to be worth the weldathon it needs. That said I kind of like it as a garden ornament too ;D

Bloke had a Skoda dealership and was a bit of a hoarder.
There is a lot more buried in the brambles, I recall a quite solid 100e being there at one time.

Some googling suggests that it is.

Someone is ebaying a magazine with a feature on that very car and it appears that it was also in CCC back in the day.

Found the Golf in Berrylands Surbiton the others were all at a garage nr Lyme Regis in Dorset ,about twentey Land Rovers and Range Rovers !!!Mini looks ok ,someone had spent a lot of money on it at some piont !

[jayps]

More and a tractor !!

[Deleted]

I wouldnt' be surprised if rather than abandoned, that tractor was in use still. Quite a few little harbours use tractors like that to DRIVE INTO THE SEA to collect boats and stuff. Madness.

[Thorley-Fox]

does anyone know where that clan clover is ?
want it!

[keithyboy]

Spotted in Littleborough. This was in use until fairly recently but the weeds are just beginning to sprout under the wheels.

I will happily enquire about any of them for anyone who's serious.
Cars are in Somerset.

I wont quote all your pics as I hate it when people do that, just the first few so people know which thread I am talking about.

The above commercial has been parked up ALL my life, I am 27 years. I used to pass it on my way to school everyday between 1992-1996. There used to be a Bedforf dormobile camper behind it but that went about 10 years ago at least.

The Skodas I forgot all about, I know that place well to. Mum bought a car from there when I was a kid and I loved the brown Viva/Firenza. Theres alsorts in that undergrowth, and yes the guys a horder. There was a F reg Volvo 340 in amongst all that once, me and some mates bought it from him to use as a field car as it was RWD... he took ages to persuade to sell!!
