Things you've found in the car....
Discussion
There was king size rizzla, rolling tobacco,several lighters but only a tiny amount of green in my most recent purchase - a bit disappointing.
Then there was the Golf I bought which had a tape unit and CD changer installed. The owner who I bought the car from had owned the car 3 years and in that whole time never used the tape as it was "too complicated" for him
Imagine my surprise then when on the drive home I got the tape deck working and it was Slammin Vinyl year 2000 new years party live on tape and a 10 disc CD changer filled with hip hop from NAS, DRE and then a Shinia Twain album & Texas.

I used to work at a garage that handled a lot of Jap imports, apart from all the cheesy Jap CDs the valeters would also find some really weird dead insects - notably giant scorpions and wasps - proper freaky stuff!
I once took an old Astra in px off and old boy and sold it on ebay with the usual 'previous mature owner' b
ks. A scouse mother and son came to buy it and shortly after it had a running problem - she sent me a nasty email about how I'd deliberately ripped her off because on opening the coin tray on the dash she'd found 40 flavoured condoms implying some young boy racer had owned it not a mature gent!

i had a similar find when i picked up an sd card (curiosity got the better of me) some people leave some odd bits lying around.
never found anything fun in any car I've owned... but an somehow an ex-work colleague in one of the ex-Soviet states gave me a cd of some photos of me and some colleagues on an event we'd all been on. A day or so later cue panicked message apologising saying she'd given me the wrong disc and please do not look but destroy...... now that's just like having a big red button with 'do not press' on it. Pics were of a photo-shoot of a personal nature, think soft-reader's wives rather than Swedish lol

Normally the usual coins / pens / sweets.
I was delighted on one occasion though, to find an as-new Snap-On 21mm spanner under the rear seat squab!
And you've never found a 21mm nut to undo, after all this time!I was delighted on one occasion though, to find an as-new Snap-On 21mm spanner under the rear seat squab!
Looks shiny in the toolbox though!
Where to start? i used to clear abandoned cars from rental garages and i was a specialist breaker for years, found in no order, sawn off gun stock, relica hand guns, drugs (lots of all kinds), mini scales, needles, a finger, comdoms used and unused, nude polaroid pics of (i assume) one of the prev owners wife or girlfriend, too many sunglasses to count and loads of cash (over the years) some gold and silver, moldy sweets and unidentifyable stick stuff
