Here the DVLA seem to just drive round with a van full of clamps once a month or so and see who they can catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least there's some form of enforcement going on.

High Jetter Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 A great example of typical Irish parking, that Ovlov. Trabant 'in the middle of a field in Achill'? Now, what would you of been doing there, sur? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there for a winter break, after the tourists had all gone home. I like it to be deserted and quiet. That Trabant is probably still there....

Angrydicky Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 The Rover H768 MVW is also taxed and MoTd, so not even out of use! Only does about 100 miles a year though. Must be an elderly owner who rarely drives now. EssDeeWon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UltraWomble Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 In a very sorry state by the old #lostockhall medical centre Mot till next summer but no tax. Or rear windscreen. Not showing as nicked but it's a pre 2015 PSA DV6 engine with over 100k miles so it's probably shit it's turbo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wingz123 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Cor looks smashing that.... Look at the key mark down the drivers side....I'd say serious vandalism....or when it has the word "slag" spray painted down the side only then does it constitute the use of the word 'serious'..... Engine may oddly actually still be ok.....I have this engine in a fiesta and cant for the life of me work out why it keeps on going into limp mode....

Lord Sterling Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Some stuff I've found over the years. Was clearing an old folder I'd taken from an old smashed phone. Alfa 156. Taken in 2014, long since disappeared. Lexus LS400 parked outside a solicitors office in central Birmingham. The place used to have quite a few old barges parked outside. A late 80s Jaguar XJ6 was equally left to go green, sadly disappeared before I could get a good pic. Jag: always used to notice this on the way home. Always been on a SORN since I saw it and never moved. Bungalow was sold last year and Jag disappeared but still currently on SORN. Bungalow has recently been demolished: Hillman Minx estate? (EOG 136C) A Google street view shot. Never seen the car myself. I think its long disappeared as I vaguely remember visiting the area. Untaxed since 1988. Escort, somewhere around the Northamptonshire area. Around the corner was this: Probably long turned into bean cans. Merc in Oxford I think. Astra, in the centre of Bristol. Area around car was fenced off with temporary building-works-type fencing. Stevebrookman, bunglebus, RobT and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKT Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 A couple from my way. W833 JPA was taxed and MOT'd until November 2016. The car in front of it is a Rover 75 estate. Interestingly R421 FPN does not come up on the DVLA records (I'm sure it is an R reg, both from memory and looking at the picture). There's also a fair amount of XJs littered around the property (there's more cars in the back garden according to the land owner behind the house). I think this is a Daimler Majestic DF316? There's another Daimler looking car behind it as well, which you can't really see on the photo. No idea what's under the tarp. bunglebus, UltraWomble, RobT and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
