This late Shadow 1 isn't strictly speaking dumped, but I've known of it for eleven years and it's moved once in that time. Fun* fact: we were watching something about Michael Barrymore a few months ago on television which had footage of him leaving court in the early 2000s (I think) and this was the very car he got into.

Should get some mates to pool your resources and buy it.

Dumped around the corner to where my parents lived. Been here for at least a week.

Could be fun recovering that to the UK.

This hasn't moved since the March lockdown, and it's recently gained a 'police aware' sticker and clamp.

It is. I spotted it from the bus yesterday and made a mental note of its location and came back today to take a picture.

Throwback to 1985 when i shot one of my first rolls of film in Strontian in the Highlands. Local collection that sat for quite a few years until they all sank into the ground..although the Bentley did achieve 1000quid.

Went for a brief local stroll earlier and spotted this neglected Merc in the corner of a car park.

I don't think that this Concerto has moved in a while:

1994/95 Honda Concerto 1.6-16

Are you sure that’s not @Saabnut’s garden?

I spotted this a couple of months ago whilst delivering a car in Coventry. It’s not visible from the road and behind locked gates that provide access to the rear of homes and a bunch of lock up garages. Looks like falling trees have wrecked the garage around it. 

Very tempted to knock the door but for the fact I didn’t really have the time, the screen being  smashed and I have no undercover storage.

Cool. I know from when I was there last the trees and front garden had been massively cut down. I used to pass there quite regularly in the late 80s and early 90s with my parents but never really stopped there so decided to have a walk around.  I remember there various cars parked up there.  Cortinas,  Maxis, more recently a white W124 Merc.

A couple of houses on the same row have always had forgotton cars sitting on the front driveways. I think one house has a Volvo 850 estate and another house has /had a mid 80s Vauxhall Astra (?)
