Has that just come out of winter hiding? Surely a wash, polish and tryre pressure check away from a drive into the countryside?

It looked worse than it is and MOT suggests it's been given up on

This one near me is slowly rotting away. E30 320i.



There’s also a local farmer who still has a 190 Cosworth parked up for at least 10 years rotting away in his field.

Can’t get a good street view picture of it.

Seen in Poole. Not sure how it got there. Seats look like new.

This may be the nerdiest comment I've made on here, and there have been a few, but is that an old school metric Michelin TRX lying by the tree?

On a car with no windscreen? They'll have things living in them.

Indeed I have two of them sitting on the rafters of my garage 200mm wide. Can’t get round to disposing of them!

Yes. It had newer interior fitted and an insurance sticker dated 2015, although it must have been pretty decrepit even then.

Rumdoodle maintains his 100% record of catching a decaying 80's Merc still doing service in the background!

The 'Winged A' bonnet mascot gives it away as an Austin.

Bringing a whole new meaning to "Italian Job Mini"

[Dapster]

Not left to die but "awaiting work" according to the guy in Kwikfit. Owned by someone over the road

[Rumdoodle]

Stumped. About the size of an Alfa Spider, resembling a Porsche at the front and an XJ220 at the rear. Sort of....

It’s a long-lost Ferrari - it says so in the bottom pic …
