Lord Sterling Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 A couple spotted in Belgium. Lancia was just outside a carwash parking area. Zafira is on a SORN and parked nearby where I used to live. SteersWithThrottle, warren t claim, martc and 5 others 4 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't be genuinely abandoned, must just be parked until the owner sorts out whatever the Belgians have for tax/MOT/insurance, shirley? uk_senator, Lord Sterling, motorpunk and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Charm Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I've always thought those are beautiful cars; remember being struck the first time I saw one. They look better in dark colours, of course. Off putting, however, is rampant rust and the dearth of decent manual versions. bunglebus, LT84, The_Equalizer and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inside the car were a pair of new number plates, what looked like a "for sale" (a Vendre) sign buried under some car gubbins, a phone number in the window and other vehicle related assortments in the seats and floor. It looks mid restoration but equally appears to have been parked there for a small while given the dust on it. SteersWithThrottle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunglebus Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Not quite sure on the story here, they're at a storage facility (shipping containers), I've pictured the Scimitar before when it looked like it might be someone's project (in my Spottings thread I think). There's clearly been a fire that's taken out a few modernz and thankfully only given the Scim some blisters.

bunglebus Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Another I've possibly posted before but I walk past it a lot - this was once the sea cadet's place along the river - suddenly abandoned including leaving the car behind. Other than a now-broken windscreen there doesn't look a lot wrong with it. All a bit mysterious Quintus and Split_Pin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoadworkUK Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Must admit my A4 could easily be mistaken for an abandoned car right now. A few months of saharan dust build-up, a nearside tyre that only holds air for a week, and a block-paved driveway that's sprouted all manner of weeds in the past fortnight and it really is a sorry sight.
