Going by the plastic wheelarch extensions and the front bumper, that *might* be one of the V12 diesel ones... in which case I shudder to think of the size of the bill it's probably thrown the owner!

I am not sure, unfortunately there are no plates on the car (or badges on the bootlid) to go by. But didn't the V12 have bigger vents in the front bumper?

Bits of it in the boot too. I'm going to guess something has broken so it's parked up whilst they wait for the cat to get nicked. The cost of a replacement will write it off and they'll have a little payout for more days out to Starbucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnthonyG Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Even by the standards of this thread, that Disco4 does look exceptionally dead. It also looks like it may contain the rotting body parts of former business rivals of whoever used to drive it, so I can see why it has been left to moulder in peace.

eddyramrod Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 You might remember me talking about a blue Astra in the Parking thread (I'd forgotten this one existed). I haven't seen that for a couple of weeks, but for the last month or so there's been a 60-plate Citroen C3 at the end of the alley, with the driver's window down an inch or so and his seatbelt fastened; and the back filled with what seem to be decorating supplies. No, not suspicious at all... bunglebus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markeh Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 A very poorly looking Range Rover (which a quick check of the quite distinctive private plate tells me is a 2022 Evoque - ouch indeed) abandoned in the Q-Park on Brindleyplace in Birmingham spotted yesterday. Couldn't stop for a photo but was covered in warning signs and taped off. Based off the damage and where the car was parked, it looks like someone's brakes hadn't quite worked coming down one of the multi-storey ramps and they decided to use the Evoque instead, decent wallop to the front, deploying the front and side airbags and probably popped the bonnet as well.

Rustybullethole Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 These have been sitting a while how this one a few weeks. Looks like it hurt. Set alight in the process too. This one also looks like it may of bruised a bit. Has become a bit of an art installation too. What ever hit it left its bumper stuck to its side. Spectacular fuck ups the pair of them.

I would think they’d be doing a better job of keeping the neighbours sweet rather than parking it though their wall. Could have been parked there and then shunted i guess. Possibly just parked up to pick some t cut up and it didn’t restart. Who knows, not I. Edited April 24, 2023 by Rustybullethole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
