Dumped cars in your area

[chaseracer]

Have you reported it as an obstruction?

[Wingz123]

Judging by the gap between the kerb and the rear tyre thats more like ditched in the middle of the road!

 

Are they planning on returning to fit a new strut?

 

Doubt it would be a college kids because vtec and insurance...

[AnthonyG]

As CS says, I would actually report that as from the photo it looks like it’s in the middle of the road! I think 111 is the number for this sort of thing.

[AnthonyG]

The 635 CSI on the previous page is taxed and Mot’d, surprised to see it parked like that as these are worth serious coin now, particularly an Alpina.

 

I suspect a fairly major fault!

This gem's been adorning a layby on the A414 for the last week at least

[chaseracer]

That's three years newer than ANY of my heaps!

[Wingz123]

I suppose that Accord is so far away from the kerb to allow them more room to get the trolley jack in and underneath so it wasn't right up against the kerb...

[Amishtat]

Thirteen years newer than any of mine!

[omegod]

Those accord cats are worth a few quid ,  i wonder !

That is by church Langley right? I recognise the bell tower in the background.

I've grassed the honda in to the council. The mirrors where intact yesterday, so somebody doesn't like it.

 

It's a couple of weeks out of test, but hasn't been tested. Maybe broke a spring & they thought they could fix it there? You'd think they'd just swap rather than take the strut away for a couple of weeks.

i just bought an 07 and thought it was new, but folk so rich they just dump 07 motors

[Crispian_J_Hotson]

It's purely a sacrifice to the segments of the local community who's daily operations are questionable or frowned upon.

[Supernaut]

I just went for a walk on my break, and there's a sorry-looking silver Xantia in a car park round the corner.

 

I put its number plate into the MOT checker, W933 HSS, and its test ran out in May 2014! When it was tested in 2013 the only problem was an exhaust leak! Poor thing is only on 66k miles too.

theres an audi a6 been abandonded for ages at the toby carvery in bolton i shall snap a pic when im next hungry.

[paulplom]

Not dumped as such, but this is parked on the main road outside our house. It's been there nearly three months and the tyres are starting to deflate. What's it worth mr?

This is still there looking more forlorn

Spotted this Vectra this morning;

 

 

It's been there, parked on double yellows for the last couple of weeks. Since then it's had its passenger side window freshly smashed and gained a removal notice;

 

 

A real shame, I've always liked these Vectras. The interior looked pretty clean.

[chaseracer]

Not surprised - it's been raining... 

 

[puddlethumper]

This Honda something has been sitting in the same spot

for two years that I know of yet has an Mot till June.

Odd.

 

 

The building in the background is a guy who does things

with chod. Tranny recovery and car trailer etc.

Eg, he's got a PT, you can see on the corner, for £600. 

[aerodynamically_challenged]

There's a Vel Satis abandoned in a layby on the A2 just before the Wincheap exit. It's been there about 5 weeks at least and it has a steering lock on. No photo because I was driving every time I passed it. Truckers seem to use that layby so i'm surprised it hasn't been reported.

Carmarthenshite!

This half-hidden "private" dump is near Capel Dewi beside Cycle Route 82, and has clearly been there many years. Feast your eyes on the Allegro, the mortal remains of a Humber Super Snipe, Austin A40, Morris Minors.

[andy18s]

As a kid I can remember spending so much time at the local car "dump",located at the end of an abandoned  railway siding that was used for bulk coal storage

Mk1 Minis,Vivas and no end of Fords to climb over...including a gold 1600e Cortina

I do intend to go take a look next time I'm in the UK, just in case.....

Rich pickings in Wales, if rural Carmarthenshire is anything to go by. I had no idea there was so much abandoned / derelict / non-running shite out there....

[bezzabsa]

Thats a very late Allegro...makes me wonder why folk do this to cars..just dump them..

Used to be a house not far from me that had a Mk1 SD1, Mk2 SD1 Vitesse, MG Metro and a capri on his drive...he'd buy a car - use it till it broke, stuff it on his drive and buy a new one..

House was recently knocked down and they all got took for scrap   2 new 'shoe boxes' built on the site

theres even an abandoned invacar in wales, sadly never found out much about that one, but its location is roughly documented in my thread

would be a good spares car to put KPL139P back on the road or vice versa

... which brings me onto Carmarthenshite Two, for Maestro lickers everywhere. This one has been off the road in Pentrellwyn for some years:

[bezzabsa]

looks pretty good - from this angle

 

[Tadhg Tiogar]

Carmarthenshite Three: a rotten Herald in Gorrig. It's fucked.

[Tadhg Tiogar]

Carmarthenshite Four: also near Capel Dewi, life went downhill for this Vitara a while ago. Carries the plate R862 ACL if anyone's interested.....

That Maestro has been off the road so long, it even shows up on Google Street View for this location, dated 2011!
