Classics left to die/rotting pics - Vol 2

[MiltonBaines]

Boxster S, last MOTd in 2017 at 95k miles. Surprised it's still there as it and the fiesta next to it have been left in a small council owned car park.

[clubsport]

Ha... That's clearly a regular Boxster 2.5 rather than the later 3.2 S variant.

[MiltonBaines]

I don't know Boxster model variants well, so the S badge was just added for show by the owner then?

I think so. That one is too old to be an S - the S started around 2000 so long after P-reg

Not entirely sure this is left to die, maybe it's being worked on.

That would be ideal for an EV conversion.......oh wait!

How about a Chevy crate motor?

Now you're just milking it.

I’ll vote for the Chevy motor if the heads have been semi-skimmed to increase the compression ratio

It would look nice painted black with a gold top ...

To follow on from its first appearance earlier in the thread, no tax since 2011 and no MoT since 2012. 74k on the clock at the last one …

Deep in the forest by the north Devon coast are these two, required a 4 mile hike to access them.

[uk66fastback]

I found a similarly abandoned looking landy a few months ago and took a picture of it...only to find out when checking that it had a current MOT. As it's now expired however I'm going to post it anyway!

[Ronaro]

A couple more landies 20 years apart to add to the love in..

I don’t know if this has been posted before, Triumph 2000 ? looking very sorry for itself, it’s at Toft Hill on the A68 County Durham. Apologies for the crap pic, I was driving my van very slowly creeping towards a junction. It’s been there at least 7-8 years to my knowledge. I’ve been meaning to post a pic for ages.

Interesting technique to obtain the “slammed” look: just drop two rocks on the bonnet.

That’ll fall apart as soon as it’s moved
