Dumped cars in your area


Recommended Posts

There seemed to be more than average amounts of Berlingo dumped.  The only island I don't recall seeing dumped stuff was Papa Stour.

That Maestro must have been parked in a seriously stiff sea breeze!  And the white Transit's a long way from Cardiff...

It's impossible not to be parked in a stiff sea breeze, Shetland isn't very wide.

 

You missed my favourite Shetland dumped vehicle.

Is that the one from the Specsavers ad...?  ;)

I was going to post a picture of the Carlton estate that has sat in my parent's street for 6 months, complete with flat tyres and a "back in 30 minutes" sign in the window. But coincidentally enough it vanished yesterday

I reckon there would have been a queue for that 1 !

There is actually another Carlton estate on the road, a blue automatic that the guy has owned for years so not sure if they were related. My parents describe the owner as a bit weird and don't like the way he never cuts the grass. So he'd probably fit in well here.

I'm not long back from Shetland where dumping vehicles is just a way of life.....

 

The more shite you can fill it with too the better!

Where abouts was the FE situated in Shetland ?  It needs to be rescued !

Not many Alexander AL bodied buses left nowadays, despite Strathclyde's Buses and Lothian using them in vast numbers.

Yes it does,look a solid enough old thing.

 

Good colour too.

Have a quick quiz..... what's this car that the farmer has clearly found in his field, and dragged out to be collected?

Nope. The subframe was beautifully polished by being dragged across the fields though.

That VX 4/90 or whatever looks way too good to be left like that.

 

Oh, and that crumbled wreck with the protruding headrests, I'm saying Maestro due to the dash and thin reverse lights. What a state for a relatively recent car!

The interior looks pretty decent!

Posted

Did anybody notice there was a cat laying on the dashboard of that Maestro?

 

EDIT: And one looking quite sinister in the boot. Like the bloody Cravendale advert.

I passed that MK2 Mondeo at Rayleigh Weir yesterday Shep, exactly the same place a BMW was dumped by drug dealers in an episode of Police Interceptors!

 

There's a Peugeot 306 burnt out in a field up the road from me in Barling, sadly it seems joyriders are still doing their thing.

Posted

I felt quite sorry for it as I crawled past in my Xantia, but on the northampton bypass there's an X plate Xantia hatch in dark blue dumped on the verge by a roundabout, police aware stickers all over it.

 

Also saw a 206 with mild crash damage on the road from the M40 to Coventry on the way to deans.

Any Scotoshiters with late(nt) Espace urgings: there's one in a lay-by on the A9 southbound between Perth and Auchterarder.  Police Scotland have laid claim, but you might beat them to it...

Dumped in our resident's parking last weekend with the busted tyre and a scrawled note in the windscreen that reads BOKEN DOWN
