From FB, outside a cafe somewhere

Long dead of course, EWL373S was a 1.8 registered in August 1977 and untaxed since August 1992.

Picture nicked from Facebook.

Thanks for letting me know, I didn't notice your above post!

Spotted this week - Love this car!

[Pieman]

Now that's a really weird coincidence, because I only saw that one myself recently and messaged @vulgalour about it!  Was the black one there on the driveway as well (and the green Armstrong-Siddeley)?

[adw1977]

DVLA says Morris (same bonnet as Wolseley) and 2200 engine.

Untaxed since 1985!

That's monumentally shagged, quite possibly the worst case of rot I've ever seen on any Princess ever.  Good find!

YKK 564X, already known?

[vulgalour]

It is known.  I think it was someone on this forum who first brought it to my attention with it was doing its best to blend in with some modern cars.

[SilverMachine]

unsure if this is know of - currently on ebay, apparently been hidden away by collectors DJL808V

That is the Badly Drawn Boy Ambassador; he has another which has been off the road since 1985 which was a scrap save earlier this year, NDS 641Y.
