Devizes, Wiltshire.  A 3.0 CD spotted by my friend.  Battery removed.

Looks like a failed collection? Passenger seat looks to have a phone battery charger and cable, plus a hoodie and what appears to be basket of oils/coolant in.the passenger footwell?

At least I certainly hope it is and will be recovered as these Senators are rare. I'd love one myself.

[Lord Sterling]

ANYWAY, enough about me, let's talk about you...

This Polo has been here for absolutely ages. It hasn't moved a tyre. I'm hoping whoever owns it is still around and has simply just given up driving but wants to keep the space rather than anything more sinister. The parking spots I think belong to the flats in the building the car is facing.

I remember an old white-haired chap used to drive this. I think he *may* also drive a white Mercedes Citan van which isn't often seen, although this may be someone else, the Citan is sometimes parked next to it.

I really hope so, it’s been in a lay-by for several days now unlocked.

The senator is now gone.  Hopefully to a new home and not the baler!

Wow

Last MOT'd October 22, blimey...

[DSdriver]

Did they piss someone off? has the owner also been given a pair of concrete wellies?

The outside looks like tree sap, but the inside is from Porton Down.

That's one of those photos that make you glad cameras can't capture smells

Going to take more than a £5 hand wash to get that muck off!

Yeah that's certainly an interesting feature. Typically after never actually seeing anyone work on the house, I went back to get a better picture and there were workmen and their vans on the drive.

While I remember - if anyone is going near Center Parcs in Bedford, there's a Maestro buried up to its windows in junk nearby, and possibly some others too - I whizzed past too fast to see properly.

I got some pictures of this place recently, fascinating.

I am seeing a lot of these on their last legs now usually being driven with collapsed air suspension on the bump stops.

A few spots I've seen over the last few months:

Not sure how or why a Lille-registered Clio has ended up in an Oxfordshire village.

Yes, I'm amazed someone knows it. I actually went to go see the Renault 4 and 205 outside the house but a tree had fallen and was blocking them. 

Seen here in 2013. https://www.flickr.com/photos/willswitchengage/8673246120/

Worryingly, outside the mortuary!

I’d love to know the back story on the house, it’s been derelict since I’ve been here and pass it once or twice a week and it has no sign of life or maintenance. Their is a farm in Northend which is not to far away and that has easily 30 plus vehicles, I keep meaning to send the drone over.

Spotted on my travels. These are in Southampton. I’d love to know the story of the CRX.

[jakebullet]

The honda of post-an-mot fame is now SORN, and dumped. Why he doesn't just weigh it in I don't know:

Corolla near the garages is growing weeds, and is another no mot / insurance / sorn:

Just had a look on Google Earth and I can see those cars, how crazy! How did you even notice them, there's nothing visible from the road on Streetview?
