¡Mierda! - Spanish Shite (now with added Portgueese shite)

The next lot were also taken in the same hospital car park. All three look to be abandoned. It was the wife who spotted the Toyota.

The cars are Yellow Toyota Corolla from 1983 (according to the app) However that would make it a E70 according to WIKI. Where as I feel this is an E50 according to WIKI.  Not another import? Any help there?

That Toyota is a KE25 Corolla.

I was in Almeria a few years ago and there was loads of abandoned brit cars (flat tyres/windows dirty) that had obviously been used as a cheap way of getting to a boat in the marina that was sailing off to destinations unknown.

Sounds strangely like Albania. At least they use the cars.

Thank you for the info. I certainly will try to take some more detailed photos soon.

Hi Remspor, did you ever get permission to post that guide to buying cars in Spain? Thanks

Not a whisper. So I will have to find the document I wrote. Had a PC crash so although most things were saved nothing has been saved with the original name. I will get too it soon.

I would love to know more about what the history is behind the hard life this car seems to have had.post-26181-0-82199500-1544890760_thumb.jpg

 

A strange sump pan guard on this Pug. Sorry no better photo as I was getting strange looks from the woman  who had just walked into shot and was heading my way.

The Hearse, first posted about last Sept., is still in the same location. Is it dead Jim?

To day had to go to the local breakers for a second-hand screen wash pump.

Photos od some finds.

The area where you have to wait for the "golfer" to bring back your part. No passing the fence.

The governor was not around so I could not get an answer to the condition of the following cars, or even if they were for sale.

Is that a full blown buttery biscuit bASe?

It looks like it. The working chaps did not know anything about it. The badging just says

 BXD

Sorry, but the picture shows a Renault 19.

Thanks for pointing that out. Never noticed.

I've just moved to Spain for a few months and noticed fewer old motors than in previous visits. Not much around here (one Rover 75 on Spanish plates but RHD) but not really been looking.

 

There is a car show on 7th April in Delores which is 15 minutes from me, so looking forward to seeing something interesting.

Well having been into Madrid today there is definitely slightly less about than when I was here in 2015. However, still way more about than most other European capitals these days.

 

And to top it off, amongst the 160 odd photos from today I finally spotted one of these:

Spanish made Dodge 3700 GT. Apparently this one has a diesel conversion too.
