This poor little thing has been stuck in the Liverpool Tunnel for years this pic was taken 2 months ago so it still in great condition! There are lots of fab classics stuck there as far as i know only one has been saved so far! Somebody should claim it and apply for the V5 i would if i had the room! It's sad to see it like this.

I saw someone write about a ford cosworth that was abandoned for 3 years and he really wanted one so he wrote to the DVLA and requested the V5 to be put in his name! They write to the registered keeper and if no reply in a certain time back comes the V5 in your name which happened to him! The only problem with that case is that it had been previously stolen and crashed into somones house so he as the registered keeper had to pay the bill but £450 later the car was all his! I so want to try this! Has anybody had experience of this before?

I saw this too on FB? I want it so bad! It depends how long ago the guy took the pics though because I've heard some of the other vehicles in there have been sold to collectors.

Oh no, someone rescue it! Wonder how long it's been in there... and why? DVLA say it was last registered in 1992.

It is at Roscoe's garage not sure exactly but the entrance is used as a garage! Apparently they has a collapse 2 months ago near the mini so it could be history now they are going to put a wall up to block it off so they will soon be lost forever!

Was reading about this on 28 days later. Apparently the mini is parked pretty much smack bang where the tunnel fell in. Shame really.
