The guy who owns this has now done this 3x with past cars. The first was an old Citroen, dumped in a parking bay and left for 8 months before being taken away. Then there was a Vauxhall which was left for about 3 months before getting clamped for no tax and then being taken away. I've now noticed he's done the same with this Focus. Tax ran out on July 1, so on August 2nd I'm going to report it to the council and have it binned. There should be a punishment for people that do this...

I keep checking this thread - I'm absolutely convinced I'll find a pic of my Landrover on this thread one day. Just recomissioned after having it stand for a year on the driveway - most of the cars on this thread look in better order than it does/did.

Did you know that Defenders grew from a specific type of fern?

Series 2 I think....possibly worth a few quid for the period registration.

Doors and flat sides say series 1, but still worth a lot of money to someone to rebuild using the ID

This Jetta and Transit minibus have been joined by another rusty Jetta and the weeds have thickened under them.

The house seems to constantly have net curtains across the windows and the driveway is now covered in rubbish.

This is a bit of an odd one and I've no idea what the story is behind this car. It's parked outside in a busy resident's parking area and you can tell from the growth underneath it's been there for a while. It has at least two flat tyres, the bashed rear bumper and greenery on the hood/doors etc. Inside looks ok.
It's registered June 08 and was due new tax July 09. It's never had an MOT.
Looks like it was used for twelve months (or less) from new, then parked.

Where is the Porsche, what area?
