Spotted Ordinary Abandoned Vehicles

[anonymous-user]

My spots:
first:





1983 Transit van and Rover SD1 Vanden Plas EFi.

Croxley Green, Hertfordshire.
Just outside Croxley station. Watford Road.

According to toomany2cvs, these have been sitting since the early/mid 90's.

Second:




Volvo 440si. Untaxed since March 07. Has a "For Sale £50" board in rear window (just about visible in the street view image)
Registration: K43 WWL.

Bushey Mill Lane, Watford.

This bond bug has been there since at least 1996, and considering i would have been 8 at that point, it could have been there a lot longer as i don't remember much before that

No idea what the car under the sheet it... i wonder if PH knows?

Brilliant!
I bet we'll have another poster come along with a car untaxted from the 60's..

Here's another. The classic, has moved and is now covered in green moss, and the Skoda Felecia is gone.
No idea what the classic car is.

That Rover is a shame. I'd love a Vanden Plas EFi

Here's an old primera that doesnt seem to have moved in a long time

I'd say it was a Morris Oxford or one of it's badge engineered cousins.

Nice to know, it's pretty neglected!

Apropos this thread, there is a V70 Estate "abandoned" on the A20 between Swanley & Sidcup. It's in a lay-by on it's own, not near anything/any buildings, been there about 3 weeks now (assuming it still is, it was on Friday). I actually saw a DVLA van parked behind it one morning, which ws odd, I didn't think they were much interested in abandoned stuff as long as they have an address to send the SORN fine to?

Not sure.
We can't have a pic though since it's only been there for 3 weeks.
I think the cars in this thread are more of the neglected type, on owner's property, rusting away.
