While we are still on the subject of classic cars, 8-) , this old rover has sat here just down the road from me for ages.The date on thr map is 2009 but she was there long before that I'd say.From the reg, she appears to be around a 1968 model. There used to be a mk 2 tina there at the start, but it was taken away.The man comes there now and again to cut the grass etc, but does nothing to the old girl.Although I did see him one day last year I think with someone, maybe a son? and they had jump leads rigged up from a jeep to her, but nothing since.I would say the owner is a bit eccentric to be honest.

That was the one :) theres also a maestro a little further round the car park on the left hand side.

I like the P6 you linked, always had a soft spot for them.

Unfortunately the google street view is not a good pic, but under that tarp sits what i believe to be an old MG or Morgan shaped object.

I'll pull over someday and actually get a better look (and picture). However i highly doubt there's much left of whatever it is as it's been there since i went to school around the corner. And that was in the days when Kevin Keegan was still kicking a ball about...
