Recommended Posts

Fuck me, that's truly awesome! Want.

Kin 'ell! :shock:

 

To be honest I can kind of understand this, sometimes you can become a little too enthusiastic about a certain model of car, its not something unusual to me.

 

I love the fact that he hasnt gone down the omGTE REPLIKA route as most of those Astras found themselves dressed up as.

 

Are you anywhere near this hoarder bloke? I'd love to see some close up pics, particularly the red one, looks as if its got a private plate.

 

I'd love to see the inside of his house, I bet its a shrine ot the mk2 Astra, I bet there are bookcases bulging with mk2 Astra paraphenalia.

thats a lot of snapped camshafts in one place

I'm sure he'll be well happy having his address splashed all over t'interwebs...

Why not? Sounds like a free ad for 'WE CAN GIT U AN E PRAT 4 VAXHAL ASTRA MARK TOO".

bet his neighbours love him.

 

Not for much longer once they all get nicked and burnt out down the local woods.

wouldnt they have to start to be taken to the local woods?

 

 

most of them look quite safe :wink:

His neighbour's Zafira looks so lonely and dejected. Seriously though I've never quite understood this whole "post a picture of someone's house/car" thing, what's the difference between the fifteen people that have clicked that link post and the one thousand chavs/prospective joyriders that walk past that house every day? All I had to do anyway was type in "Kingsway" from that dude's satnav into google maps, investigative powah

 

Maps picture dated 2009 and presumably the FB one is last week so interesting that none of the off road ones have moved in three years

Blimey. Wonder if he secretly wishes he could get rid of a few? Probably heavily into Mk2 Astras, starts with one then gets offered another and tries to 'save' ever one he is offered. Before you know it he is overrun.

Hmmm - I know that feeling - just not with Mk2 Astras!

 

Anyone got a Beta saloon they don't want? (that was a joke... before I end up with any more!)

Posted

What a total winner! I love the fact he seems to have ditched most of the 3 doors on the google maps link and gone for 'more doors' instead.

I see your Astras, and raise you several BMW E28s (and others)...

This location should be well-known to 'shiters based near Reading. Some of those 5-series have been there a decade or more - because I bought some spares from him when I ran a 528i during 2002. The brick wall at the front is a subsequent addition.

Those Mk2 Ashtrays and those BM's..... that's an illness! How the hell can anyone blag that many cars parked in their garden without the local council poking their noses in?!

More interesting than collecting garden gnomes though.

Posted

One of the Astras has some 'neverfadenevershrinkeasytoapplyprofessionalquality' writing on the back window.

 

Cant quite make it up but its got to say something like 'Shiter astras wanted!'

YO!

 

Small, uninteresting update ahoy; I found some photos on flickr of the Vauxhall hoarders cars.

 

*Some* pics can be found HIER
