Spotted Ordinary Abandoned Vehicles

[The Rotrex Kid]

That’s a Toyota Cressida, that’s what’s it is!

[Steamer]

Thought it was a toyota - but had to give in on the model and ran the plate..

A Cressida.

Horrible wheel bolts - but each to their own.

[Arnold Cunningham]

I really like that. Rare as rocking horse…. in the UK I think

I know there's one less than there used to be after my dad's company car threw a piston in lane 3 of the M6 in 1981. Bonnet flipper apparently.

This has been there for years…

A dead Range.

This one is located not too far from me - not technically an Ordinary car, think its potentially a Cadillac (although the Corsa to the left has been there for some time too).

Been like that since 2013 since I moved to the area, but looks like it was abandoned long before.
Don't know what the back story is, but would love to know - there is also a house behind all the foliage.

Lincoln Continental I think

Spotted these in the back of a compound in Ollerton

Oooh a Montego Turbo. Looks like an early one pre-facelift.
I imagine it's been there since the engine let go!

Sorry , looks like you are right with the Cadillac. I just jumped i when i saw the lights and didn't pay enough attention to the grill

[SteBrown91]

This house near me has a fetish for leaving VW Up!'s to rot outside their front door. You can't see well on google maps as the conifers are too thick, but from memory on top of the white one, there are 2 tuquise coloured facelift models and a red one. There might even be more than that!

No idea what car/s these are, I often walk past on the way to Richmond park but never linger or take a photo closer up. I'll have to try next time.

Expensive area and the house looks pretty diserted, probably best part of £800k if the house were in good condition.

I had a peer over the fence at these two today. I think they are both Vauxhall Vivas. The one on the right seems to be a three door estate (hatchback?). The one on the left has a Viva boot lid resting on the bonnet.

They are both full of junk. You can't see any more short of taking down the front fence or going into the garden.

As I said a few posts above

Looks like the Battersea Dogs home for dying barges. 8 series and XC90.



Plus a W140 Merc and an E38?? under the arch. The Touring is in use. The others have been there in various states of decay for the last decade.

Spotted this yesterday, abandoned for a little while now judging by the moss underneath. Possibly no engine in it either, judging by how high the front end is?

Of course.

Not really ordinary, but appeared sometime after 2010, and doesn't look like either have moved since 2019, although I can remember seeing them unmoved for a number of years before that.
