Crap shot of this Jag that's been sat outside Mr Crutch for ages festering

Putting 2+2 together (and perhaps getting 7), manual conversion of an XJ-R6, beyond the skills of Mr Clutch lads and too pricey for owner to move? That’s a gorgeous car, well worth saving, even if only for the wheels.

Another crap pic of a Jag - sits in the drive of a house that seems to have been undergoing renovation for years 

[Rod/b]

Maybe the owner got up in the middle of the night for a piss and accidentally fell to his death out of the inexplicable  upstairs front door? 

[bunglebus]

Yeah that's certainly an interesting feature. Typically after never actually seeing anyone work on the house, I went back to get a better picture and there were workmen and their vans on the drive.

While I remember - if anyone is going near Center Parcs in Bedford, there's a Maestro buried up to its windows in junk nearby, and possibly some others too - I whizzed past too fast to see properly.

A507 Woburn Road

This had been left parked on the road for a few months, complete with flat tyre and assorted detritus accumulating underneath. The other night it was rear ended by a mystery vehicle and left in a bit of a state. A few days later it was dragged away on a recovery truck, I don’t know if the owners arranged for it’s disposal or the council classed it as a hazard and had it binned off.

Well dip me in honey and throw me to the lesbians - it was two red Maestros buried in junk!

In front of one is a Metro - red, natch

But what's this? White? We all have off days I suppose

And further into the undergrowth is what looks suspiciously like a Marina - I wonder what else is hidden away from Google's all-seeing eye?

Hang on - there's ANOTHER car behind the Marina - Hunter?

One of the Maestros is visible from above, property goes back a long way and is covered in sheds etc - bet there's some serious shit hidden away

Britain's favourite garden ornament

Quite a late Golf going green locally to me

[New POD]

Some I spotted on Ynys Monthis morning. With the first one that's Snowdonia in the distance

[bunglebus]

Reminds me of this one I found in Yorkshire years ago

[D.E]

There's a Cossie nearby that, I assume, has been pushed out of one of the garage in front and is now slowly deteriotating.  

My pic, taken in 2020:

Strangely this one never passed an inspection since it was imported twenty years ago.

Surprised it’s not been nicked.

I spent many years of my childhood in Wales and there was literally nothing as exciting as finding a rotted out hulk of a car abandoned in a hedge. I still don’t think I’ve found anything that will beat the thrill.

Anyone in Wiltshire? Drove past this lot near Little Ann on the A343 earlier, since Google took the pics the dealer seems to have closed, but that row of cars remains, either the Ibiza or the Aldi has now got a smashed screen though

I mean that stretched Corsa has to be worth saving?

Seriously though, the Arosa on the end would have a good home here if nothing else

[bunglebus]

Not quite sure what the score is with caravan ally. Might be used but they certainly didn't look well looked after

[UltraWomble]

^^^^

Are those being lived in or have they just been dumped?

[sheffcortinacentre]

If it's on the A rd ( shan't mention exact location) heading towards east Anglia think it's someone that brakes them.

I remember this from years ago when Pog (RIP) spotted them. They used to be a lot more visible...

I think the property on the other side of the road is connected, as there's another Marina covered in flowers

plus a Metro among the detritus in this field

Plus, well, masses of other stuff. The fact the address is listed as a 'caravan dealer' would certainly put me off poking around, but I bet there's some amazing stuff there

I'm not sure, they were in a light industrial/retail area, was hard to tell. I'd say in use but for what I don't know

As above on a light industrial estate/behind a supermarket, in Glastonbury/Street area. I get about a bit!

A very dead Chevette.

Shite drive by pics

And what appeared to be arson

[Skut]

Been sitting a couple of years in Dundee.

Only 66,000 miles at its last MOT in 2021 as well. It's a great shame to see such a rare Impreza slowly decaying like that. What are the non-turbo Imprezas like to drive? Are they sporty, but just not ultra-quick if that makes sense?

This has been a few streets from my house for years, we walk pask to to and from the park! 

All tyres are as flat as the bonnet

This has gone now, walked past yesterday for the first time in a while

Thirsty, slow and kind of fine but not very exciting.

 

They're not just a less powerful WRX/STI - there's a lot of extra stuff in the fast versions, making them a lot more special

[bunglebus]

Fairly bad drive by pics - missed the Pug 306 with a missing wing and a fair coat of green in the same road, but captured these two. BX is hard to make out but definitely out of use
