Dave_Q Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Always thought about starting an fred like this and a comment @busmansholiday made after passing by prompted me to do it. Please though, if you are posting, try to not make the exact location obvious in case they end up with The Beaded Burgler in their yard doing a youtube video. Anyway, do you ever pass a house and think the owner is deffo a shiter (whether they know it or not?) This one is near me, the MG on the road has been parked there for at least the 10 years I've been driving past, it may sometimes move, I can't confirm. Dunno if the Lexus belongs to the same bloke, I like to think it does. Satellite view shows in the region of 20 festering BL heaps amongst a series of ramshackle shed and container structures - SHITER CONFIRMED So, any good hoards near you?

Rod/b Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 There’s a bloke who lives near my place in Warwick who’s got a bungalow surrounded by various mk V Escorts and MGFs, all up on axle stands with bits missing. No evidence of any actual working examples. I’ll see if I can find a a Streetview grogee, Dave_Q, Dyslexic Viking and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the cars are fucked, and the owner was very much in the mindset of MoT exemption being the best thing ever as it saved loads of work. Sadly he's not well and not long for this world. I should imagine the ones dumped on the road will be swept up in short order. Popsicle and Erebus 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pieman Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 These three have been outside this house for a few years now, there were a couple of Jeep Cherokees there at one time too. Not sure if the occupier is a shiter, or if they are just abandoned. Shite Ron, grogee, Dave_Q and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think the MG in the streetview is the only one on the road now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grogee Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Scabby 924 and 2x old Bedford CF campers man near me in Warwickshire. Don't know anything about him except there's quite a high turnover, it was a Saab 9-5 with flat tyres and no tax last year.

J W Pepper Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 This blue herald estate used to be parked up, never got the number plate, and it has since gone, it was quite rotten, I wouldn't say to far gone, probably scrapped by now unfortunately. I think the house was owned by an elderly couple, occasionally there was a 13 plate focus on the path behind the herald, probably visitors, the drive has since been redone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muniphobia Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 I spotted this Victor FB parked up when taking a different route home a few months back looking on the historical street view it used to live under the car port at the side of the house and looked more loved although bumperless JeeExEll, Shite Ron, chaseracer and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out it had belonged to the lady's husband and had always been in his family. He'd not long passed away so I didn't labour the point but did intend to return and ask again at some point. Never did and no longer live in Essex so almost certainly never will. It's still looking alright for one of those, especially when it's been there at least twenty years to my knowledge. bunglebus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erebus Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 This one's just round the corner from me and probably a bit more like it! That's a very ropey 70s MGB GT you can just see the roof and screen of. Were all there in 2009 according to street view. The old boy looks like a proper hoarder.

Don't blame us, blame google and the satellites. I know you can have your house blurred on streetview if you want, perhaps you can also have it blurred on satellite if you like? Nobody is posting anything that would enable a house to be identified so I don't see an issue?
