Spotted Ordinary Abandoned Vehicles
Discussion
Hello everyone! After a recent 2 day struggle of being sick I thoroughly enjoyed reading through this entire thread, about time I also provided my own.
I do a lot of photography of derelict buildings so as you can imagine I come across a fair few abandoned vehicles. Here's 2 of my favourites:
Meadrow House Ka, abandoned in 2015 when the owner left the country and was unable to return for issues with her visa. After photos of her house spread online, she began complaining about it, never expecting her house to be forgotten about by friends and family. The house is now repossessed and the KA is scrapped

Coombe Park BMW, Sorn in 2007, the original owners of the coombe park mansion had to leave after being evicted for losing their money. This car was left behind, being only a few years old the mileage must be one of the lowest around today. House is purchased, car is probably scrapped.

Found this at the site of the ruins of the Sladnor park hotel in Torquay, south Devon.
Doesn’t look like it’s been moved in a few years, plates come back as being from a blue Subaru

Why do I have to ask for permission to look at those photos?I do a lot of photography of derelict buildings so as you can imagine I come across a fair few abandoned vehicles. Here's 2 of my favourites:

Edinburgh seems to have a ridiculous amount of seemingly abandoned cars be it in drives ir randomly lying around... next time I'm in the area, I should really make a list but it'd be pretty extensive and range from a white Boxster to various old Volvo estates, Civic Type R, assorted MG ZR and a few old Germans and the obligitory Range Rovers. They're in a variety of locations too from car parts to council estates to new builds and oddly, some rather grand houses too.

Not sure, the Youtuber does alot of exploring in Sussex, but I don't think the vehicles are located that way.
Being part of the same hobby we've spoken in the past, she mostly does Surrey and sussex but does travel about. Wasnt photographed for other forums so wasn't too important to her, might see if I can find itiain014 said:
Doesn't get much more "ordinary" than an early Mondeo. Had never noticed it before but it is very green and doesn't look like its gone anywhere for some time
That must have been off the road for a while - Its the first one I've ever seen without a gaffer-tape rear bumper! BFleming said:

Is that an AstonMartin Lagona fading away on the left!?
Good spot. I'm guessing it's this one (from 2015). At least the 944 is gone now...There is a guy not too far from me that has a driveway chockbang full of tatt, non working cars.. and a nice looking Lotus Excel amongst them. The house is as run down as the cars, just looks like a hoarder.

Wow. Really does make me wonder when you see driveways like that. Is it an owner that likes cars and just can't bare to part with them when the break down?

A couple of years ago, there was the most stunning Guards red air cooled 911 on the driveway, dunno where it ended up.There is a guy not too far from me that has a driveway chockbang full of tatt, non working cars.. and a nice looking Lotus Excel amongst them.
