Dont know about the others, but I have an old superclasics magaizne from the late 80s with the same picture. A hoarder from tsomewhere in France, they were oved to another, unknown location after the auction houses cottoned on. There were several Bugattis too.

I will try and scan in more images. I hqve often wonder what happened to the hoarc. Whether they wrr finally restored/rescued, or whether they were too far gone by the end

Wasn't there a major board in France a year or two ago, went to auction? This one, though there might be better pictures elsewhere: https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/motoring/...

They could, but I think their roots are too deeply embedded in cars.

Maybe not yet a classic (or ever!) but this old C180 was destined for the scrapper this week..
Been stood for three or so years but apparently ran fine before being parked up.
Quite a hefty advisory list on the last mot which almost certainly hasn't been seen to!
Anyway, bought it as it was cheap enough. Needs a battery so will try and get it running at the weekend.

I'd have bought that just for the wheels

I could do with a couple of wings for my C43 estate as well....

Both look in good condition from that distance.

I saw this car last month in the garage of our hotel in Dinkelbühl, Bavaria.

[Escort3500]

Really sad to see it like that. Lovely cars.

Probably just needs a set of tyres.

Really not cheap on those original alloys.

This is parked just off the main street in Herne Bay, fairly basic Cortina but can't remember there being that many 2 door saloons about
