fastcar Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 There is a black TT auto that has been left for years in Gloucester. It was in a pub car park but has now been moved to a driveway by a house. Could have a look and see if it is that one next time I'm in that area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could have a look and see if it is that one next time I'm in that area might be worth trying to save this one too - - - Updated - - - Its a joke.... it didn't come across as a joke and based on the response on RR I'm not the only one who didn't think it was funny...

fastcar Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 might be worth trying to save this one too I'm sure someone would. It's been sat there not moving for nearly 8 years now!! So I would have thought every bit of rubber and electrical component would need a lot of attention. You never know though these cars were built to last after all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supragal Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 I'm not sure you'd get away with calling it "abandoned", it's on someone's driveway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rider Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Its outside number 39 if that helps. Maybe you can zoom into the number 6 on the lamppost. Might have a borough reference? Or the doggy don't poo here notice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wattwatt Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 There's a silver one in Hutton that's been parked on someone's drive with both back tyres flat and looking sorry for its self [emoji24] at a guess I'd say it's been sat there for about 4/5 years maybe even longer... I've always been tempted to knock on the door and ask what they are planning to do with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
