Looks like a gang of armed ski-masked Staffies used it to block the lorry and raid all the rawhide chew toys!

Been to the gearbox specialist and there were a maroon xjs parked outside and a red
sierra about 50 myard further down the cul-de-sac.

On the way back a moss green mgb gt rubber bumper model in a car park opposite
Hartlepool reproduction centre(I always see it parked there!!)

And Behind the co-op in Blackhall in Chapman the butchers carpark a yellow Austin
Cambridge(it belongs to one of the butchers at that family firm)

It is for sale so if anyone is interested and you can't make out the number in the pictures, I noted it down.
There were some blisters in the paint but otherwise it looked ready for a years motoring.

This rather sorry sight in a hotel car park in Bude. By the condition I would think this has been there for a very long time. Image

According to the DVLA, it has been unlicensed since August 2007. It's a shame as I love a classic rover and I am sure that someone could perk that up and get it back on the road :)
