Autoshite heaven (in Scotland)

[DodgyBastard]

Edit*

 

This thread is dedicated to all of the automotive graveyards I've visited, the first one is my local one which probably started it off for me. The rest are from all over Scotland and some England too.

 

 

 

 

It would appear that most of the pics in this thread have disappeared, I really can't be bothered posting them again so here's some links to the albums on flickr

Here's some photos of what's around at the moment,

 

 

 

Great registration number if you run an escort agency called "G2"

Yo! Grab the door handles off one of those Ibizas will ya, I think I know somebody who needs one....

[RoadworkUK]

That 827 down a hole is sad. Even if you have an (ir)rational hatred of 800s, a car down a hole is a sad car.

I would but the only way in is through the boot and it looks like this inside,

Do they have any modern stuff? Specifically an early Citroen C5 LX with a working heater fan and at least one wheel. I was going to go to Upullit today but I'll go straight there if they have what I need.

[DodgyBastard]

Afraid not, it seems that everyone has forgotten the places exists, there probably hasn't been anything new since 1999.

That r reg mazda 323 looks a honey

[Morgan84]

Maybe with some positive interest,the place might get well known again,and start to take in some newer stocks once more,and have a little bit of a boost

I was going to go to Upullit today.

 

There's a lovely beige Marina estate for sale in there at the moment, it's taxed and mot'd and has had a rebuilt engine at some point, they want £600 for it.

That's what I hoped might happen, the great thing about the place is everything is really cheap and very reasonably priced. I'm sure Hazel can tell you that they got a bargain when they spend 3 hours stripping that Montego of anything worth taking.

What they didn't have was any fugging C5s

Did have a lot of work done on it a while ago. Came up from wales a few years ago!. I hope she gets saved the rust is surface rust!Wonder who i know that would like a marina!

[seacow]

Can you just pitch up and look round or do you need to call first? Gutted I missed last week through kids parties!! I want to see what's left on that e30 but it doesn't look like much!!!

[R9UKE]

I always try and call by U Pull It any time I'm heading between the midlands and St Andrews. They had a LHD Safrane V6 a few years back.

Is that a car full of nettles? Would love to see some better pics, not sure why but it looks cool

[DodgyBastard]

The place is overgrown in the summer,

 

 

 

 

 

 

And bare in the winter.

 

 

 

 

[gearoil]

I had no idea this place existed !

 

Looks like people forgot it was there and its become overgrown. Roughly how many cars are there....?

[DodgyBastard]

Found somewhere even more epic, just waiting on the photos uploading...

[Split_Pin]

Hurry hurry!

[doug]

A coodney wait.........click on the face book link thing. Amazing photos. Where is this?

[Charlie Croker]

That place In Perthshire is unbelievable!!!!

[whitevanman]

OOOFFFFFFF !!!!! So many heaps of lushness ......I wanna buy loads of them

[cort16]

Sheesh thats the motherload. You could retire on all those old VW's.

[In The Pit]

Great photos that red Horizon looks in very good condition, DVLA says it came off the road in 1992, it looks like it just got there. I like the burgandy Maxi that colour always suited them well I used to see lots about in that colour, DVLA says it came off the road in 1989.

[Split_Pin]

Wow that's some gaff!

 

Love all the 504 Estates and the 1 and 1/2 R6's!

[Lord Sterling]
