As per title, my neighbours are now using their old Corsa as storage(it has cardboard and a big backed tv in it at the minute)

It has been parked up on the garden for a year or so now and is frankly a mess.

The house is rented but we cant find any details for the LL as the LR has him as living at the address in question.

Can anything be done about the eyesore that is next door?

I don't think so, unless you want to plant a bush there.

Seriously?

I doubt it. They've got a legal car on their land. They can store pretty much anything in the back of it they want.

At least they haven't dumped the TV in the front garden or on the street like most other filthy censoreds seem to do. grumpy

Ah, I was reading it the wrong way. I thought the OP was wanting the car removed in case it somehow infected his car with something.

If he just doesn't want to see it, fit shutters to his windows? Or maybe hold his copy of the Daily Mail at a different angle so it obscures the car?

Not if the Corsa is a protected monument.

If that's the most trouble your neighbours are causing you, consider yourself lucky. A quick search on here will reveal some absolute horrors that could move instead of your neighbour if you were to upset them enough to leave. I've been quite fortunate that I've always had good neighbours, even if a few of them have been a little odd.

Sounds to me like that's a different problem, and one that can be looked into by the appropriate authorities (your local council might have a noise enforcement team or some such organisation). Rather than worrying about the Corsa, which sounds as though it's all above board, you might wish to direct your efforts in the direction of the noise problem.

It will be an evil day when a man can not use his shed as a shed.

What he said. Talk about scope creep.

Any car can be a shed, and I make a habit of owning nothing but sheds, but a Corsa is one of the finest of all sheds. Maybe I should get one, but ORL VOXHILLS R RUBIHS.

So from what I have read OP doesn't get on with neighbors, thinks that a SORN vehicle must still be available to be used as a car and gets shirty when people point out next door can use it as shed/storage unit etc if they want.
