Came across this the other day after getting slightly lost trying to find a car dealer and trusting technology , ended up surrounded by houses , poor thing looks green and neglected , parts and crap inside it aswell , hasn't moved for a while by the looks of it
And yes the place I was looking for turned out to be right opposite the houses so felt stupid
The fact you were lost is a sign!And yes the place I was looking for turned out to be right opposite the houses so felt stupid
You should go back and try to save it....

This is a bit naughty as it's supposed to be hidden from view by a sort of sheet but not
concealed enough for my nosey camera !
That's not been left to die/rotting! - It's blatantly being used as a bracket for the hose and electrical cables! concealed enough for my nosey camera !

As the subject of the Swedish CosworthGraveyard has come up again and i said "Been there"
I don't want anyone calling BS on me so here are MY pics from 2010.
Can't remember if they have been posted here before but this thread is too long to check.
The last pic shows my car with the red mirrors poking out onto the road outside the yard
Some of these pics are similar to the originals posted by the finder of the yard but these
ARE mine

Go back a couple of pages where there is a link to an article which appeared
a few years ago about a Hungarian who "found" this place and posted it and it
spread all over the web as it would.
I was linked to it via a SEAT forum which gave an exact map location for it in
Sweden.
I was visiting Sweden for a car event ,Power Big Meet,google it it's huge and as this
yard was not a huge distance away i drove over there after the show one day and hey presto.

There is a field FULL of old classics, cars, vans, motorbikes, you name it In Fearnan on the banks of loch Tay, as you out of Fearnan on the left Just on the edge of the village,Loch tay is on your right down the bank, your tripping over cars and stuff!
The whole lot is just rotting away ... sad to see.
