omg that is stunning really makes me want it it's the car i want!

I haven't been to Camden in a good year or so...

It's a bit Hipster for my liking, as far as I'm aware its still there though, don't know who owns it.

I can find it's exact location for you if you'd like.

Yeah cool!

Not saying it's the case with the above -

but the amount of times someone asks about an apparently abandon car that has been in the same spot for years

only to be told it is not for sale - it will be restored - and never was - just left to rot -

sad

Wow that's nice is it an austin cambridge? How long has it been there?

[Thorpsta]

We've got a few, not quite abandoned ;) More like laid up tin


MG Magnette farina, no good for anything unfortunately, how many left states 7 on the road, 0 sorned. One got raced last year and I've only ever seen 1 on ebay.



Morris Oxford, can't remember the story of how this got there

HML states 11 licensed 0 sorned, but I know where there's loads so I don't think that's true



Riley 4/68. Quite a bit of history behind this, unsure what but it was some dealership owners car or something, this is dad's project after the MIni, or his Ford Pop

17 registered, 6-8 sorn



My favourite, Austin Westminster a110. Wanted to race this in the All Westy Meeting, but never did, too far gone to restore it aswell
32 licensed, 11 sorn
(Mini's sold)

Yeah it's so common they have no intention on restoring them they just don't want to sell it's silly when someone could restore them!

MG is totally gone, does make a nice garden ornament though Think it's being chopped up. Dads on about selling the Oxford but that won't ever happen as I want it, Riley is after the Mini, and I havn't got any of the pictures of the pop It comes up for sale sometime this month and the guy has given my dad first refusal, other than westy's it's my dads love affair so well most likely get it
