What about this on the same street? Does it get used regularly?

Some of the stuff in this thread is eligible for the "Classics rotting, left to die" thread

in the classic car forum.

They're far from "ordinary"

Anyone know what the car is?
I think I've got the plate (YDF 251) but I could ve mistaken. Eurocarparts brings up nothing.

Old Rover P4 I think.

2 Citroens, been there for years, don't think they've been moved at all. One of them was full of boxes and random stuff:

Been there since 2009 or longer, looks like it may have still been in use

A Rover 200 R8 of little importance in Orpington.

Has been there for many (>5) years.

There was a red one like that at a house near my old place in a similar state. Odd thing was it was in the centre of a fairly large drive and the house had 3 or 4 cars that were all regularly used and they must have needed to manoeuvre carefully around the Rover all the time.

I was up there yesterday and having seen this thread intended to snap a pic or two but it had gone!

Having a Micra and a trailer outside devalues that house

Road seems to be stuck in 2003.

You need to see this road for your self!

You're just posting random pics of old cars, possibly none of which are abandoned.

Thread fail.

Someones being a grumpy old...
Shall we guess?

And in abandoned I meant neglected.. maybe I should request to change the thread title?

And anyway I drive past these cars and in the ones in the council estate, they tend to sit around all day. So yes.

Not sure to be honest, I was always more interested in the 8 as I'd like another someday. Never even noticed the Van to tell you the truth.
