I hope nothing bad happens to it now the doors down. It's probably on old persons car that's been sat like that for years. Some little chav breaks the door down on the theive then the next thing you now the local kids are smashing the windows and burning it out.

3rded. I hope the owner can be notified before it gets damaged.

It's in a small block of about six lock ups but I've no idea how you would get hold of the owner unless someone has access to DVLA. And if it's been there since 1981 do you really think the owner is still around? What happens then?

Well someone's presumably paying the rent. It might not have been there since '81, just not taxed since.

I guess so but I'm not sure they're council garages so how do you find out who owns them. Also there are things in the yard where I keep my bus that have definitely been abandoned but as the yard owners are fairly laid back and have plenty of space they are happy to let the stuff return to nature. So it does happen.

As far as I know the council should be able to tell you who owns the garage.

 

I know they can do there here as there's a car in a garage I want just can't afford.

Fairly high spec Micra.It belongs to a lad around here and is his first car.He's had it for about 4 years already.

The unusual thing about this one is the fact that the owner has just had a new fully reconditioned engine put in at a cost of

€2000.The car has done 215 thousand miles.so not everyone believes in the throwaway society.

Good to see AXA still underwriting older stuff, even if they are pricey.

This pulled out in front of me on the A50 the other day - it is highly likely that my eyes sprang out on stalks in a cartoon style. Sadly, I was in the van alone so it can't be confirmed.

This one deserves its own post. One thing that strikes me is how small it looks now compared to the cars around it. Would have been a big car once.

Great patina on bonnet. And dice.

Just for Zantimisfit. Looooong time since I've seen one of these moving and longer still since seeing one that hasn't been "customised"

Yesterday! Don't think you can tell that well but not one panel wasn't wobbly and it looked like it was painted very thinly in rattle can

There's still a few mk4 Fiestas about but it's got black bumpers. Can't remember them with that

Weekend shite

Which show was that with the old bikes lined up... Padstow?

 

And as for that Imp in the vandalised garage above, has anyone got onto the council yet? If not, I give it a couple of weeks tops before it's either wrecked, or stolen ????
