Dumped cars in your area

Possibly nobody's reported them to DVLA, otherwise there'd be a feckin' big clamp attached to each one plus a sticker on the window. 

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.

At least there's some form of enforcement going on. Pity they're not going after all the RHD ones on foreign plates as well......

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?

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....

Thart reminds me there is a RHD Golf on Romanian plates round here

Enter the plate on DVLA and see if it clashes with a UK-registered car.

Once again Ilford comes up trumps. Thinking of putting a bike in the car as there are lots I couldn't pap

(OK the last two are Dagenham)

Dead dubs Dundee.

Astra van on the same property as the silver hatch I posted a while back. There's a complete van too - guess what colour it is?

This continues to fester

Can't see the plate, but I can see it's an early air cooled one. Maybe a really early metal air vent one?

Spotted this through an open gate into a haulage yard. Avenger? 

[bunglebus]

Maybe a Hunter?

[mitsisigma01]

Escort  mk2, bit common 

[bunglebus]

That's never a MK2. Look at the tail lights and trim around the arches.

[chaseracer]

It's unmistakably an Avenger, though the wheels look like 70s/80s Ford steelies.

[bunglebus]

Tatty MK2 Chav hides its face in shame

This hasn't moved since I first spotted it probably 10 years ago

^^^^ Nice but not really "dumped"  are they?
Or am I just being pedantic?

[bunglebus]

Not dumped but out of use/forgotten. This thread seemed like best place to put them

[Angrydicky]

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.

[bunglebus]

Ah OK - it never seems to move and just had a general air of disuse about it

[Amishtat]

Used to see it around but it doesn't seem to move much nowadays 

[UltraWomble]

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.

 

[HH-R]

Smashy smashy!

[Wingz123]

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....

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.

[MKT]

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.
