Classics left to die/rotting pics - Vol 2

[52classic]

Wow Phantom! That Consul has a MKI bonnet motif.

But what's that under the blue tarp?

What sort of commercial lurks next to the Consul?

Is the Consul a rare one?

Need to take more pics, not far away so I will have another look

Tiny pic is Riley Elf or Wolseley Hornet.

I think the chrome windscreen surround and chrome headlight bezels date it around 1961/2 and a 'Lowline' one. Not especially rare but that one looks very serviceable and a nice colour. I'm guessing that the interior will be grey.

Not sure if it's a classic, but it's certainly rotting...

That's look very much like a cavalier hatchback, what a state that's got into. Almost wonder how it could get so bad considering its from the mid 80's probably. Having said that what a piece of st anyway and good riddance

Looks like it might be on the coast.

Yep MK II Chav..

Yes it's on the north coast of Skye, it's being there for as long as I can remember, but it was just yesterday I thought about taking a picture of it , for this very thread...

Is that a transporter next to it? Destined for a banger race?

That's a pretty big assumption to be making!

I worked out in Qatar a few years ago, went for a wonder around one day and came across these.. I think they may have belonged to the Royal family or some pretty important people, sure the mercs were bullet proof and seemed pretty seriously spec'd..

[MarshPhantom]

Nice. Bulletproofing makes them really heavy and not something you'd want to live if you didn't need it. Shame.

These are outside the small garage in our local village in Gironde

Looks like not much death and very little rot.

But appearances can be deceptive.

[Iva Barchetta]

I'm guessing the Suzuki,furthest car from the road is the one.

The Whizzkid doesn't look like it's moved for a while.

Yes, there could be plenty of rot on that MX5.
