I walk past this Duster regularly with the dogs.
It's in a nice area but looks like it hasn't moved in quite a while, going off the flat tyres and moss growing round it.

Surprise, a Duster gathering dust.

Cheers, yeah low miles, I just fancied a nosey at it to see the displacement, 3000cc so its a goer too. No idea if its a real one though, first registered October 1993.

Seen today, pretty rare sight in Switzerland:
Not sure if project car, crash victim, or abandoned, probably all of those combined...






Spot my new Twizy in the background

Having lived there, I'm surprised their neighbours haven't complained to the local authorities and had it removed!

No MOT for 10 years !

Sad to see that Fiero, no matter how bad they were.

Koutouloufari, Crete. Was there last week. Did you spot the Merc 190 in the car park across from the Asterias Apartments?

That's a very early car. The launch cars had a single, fixed arm wiper that parked on the passenger side (that's a LHD car). Customer feedback was that it didn't clear enough of of the screen, so just 9 months later the W201 got the "jumping" single wiper from the W124 that cleared the corners of the screen. These wipers parked on the drivers side to clear the drivers view first. The jumping wiper cars also came with twin nozzle washer jets on the bonnet. The single nozzle cars are very rare and cause us Merc nerds to go all wobbly.

I wouldn't call this ordinary but it was parked in the same spot last year when I drove past (approx 8-10months) little village just outside of Bridport...

That is a Toyota f430

Explains why it hasn't moved in a while and is left out in the elements

Wow, that’s an F30, oldest would be about 11 years old.


Still would be worth at least 5k
