Spotted this today.

On the property next to my gf’s parents house in Spain.
It’s a long way from home and doesn’t run anymore so is an extra protection layer for the shed.

I hope that gets saved, MOT only ran out last year!

Wow, how long has that been abandoned - MOT ran out 3 years ago, but the tyres still look inflated..

Indeed. Far from an "ordinary" abandoned vehicle.

Spotted this one locally on our walk to get brunch with friends today, the house itself looks abandoned too which is unfortunate as it is situated in a really desirable part of Edinburgh and in average nick probably £400k easy. The Ka has been off road since 2016 and has less than 13k miles on it. I suspect this is where the owner of the property and vehicle were perhaps already quite elderly, went into a home and no descendants have been traced?

Doubt the treasury woud be that slow if there was £1/2m on offer!
Might be a confirmation ( scottish version of probate) issue
Great post though. Will it all get engulfed by the flora?

I wonder if the Matra has moved much since its last test. I note the two passenger seat belts are clicked in. Very little mileage covered annually going by the MOT history.
It will be MOT exempt soon, I can't see it being abandoned without good reason. Cool cars.

Does look like an ERA or at least the bodykit.

The bulge and bonnet badge are intriguing too.

I'd say that was probably too interesting for this thread.

I believe so.
Photos were taken a few years ago now.

The blue one was a Paul Smith edition.
