Amazing finds 👏 the cornich. do love their yard art ha. They never did a v12 manual jag so someone has put a lot of effort into building that.

Omg bro the 21 turbo and the 850r and the V12 Jag even the lotus and the v70t5 all pride and joy yet wasting away. Should be polishing them and keeping them clean. Great vid mate

you cant restore anything because the priceswould be 10-100 times the value of those crap cars...today they take 20.000 Euro for a full paint job alone in most countries

It's shame and a mystery. Knock on the owner's door and they'll either want a stupidly high price for it or it's not for sale. Then you'll ask them what are their plans... nothing. They'd rather have it sit and rot away beyond repair than let someone buy it off them for a reasonable and fair price.

Would prefer the 850r out of all of them next the v70 t5 shame to see them rotting away like that if they dont want to spend on them let someone who would have it at a price that reflects condition not over inflated price . May be worth 8000 when its done but would cost 80% of that doing it up and a lot of sweat blood and tears, but owner would still want 5000+ in their head because someone enquires about it.Top video once again Stu keep them coming.

Strange place for cars is Cornwall as a kid we used to go to lands end and where we stayed the owner of the holidays homes had a car park with 3 scrap MK2 Mondeos all 1.8 td with bits missing and obviously using them for spares then a farm with Ford sierras and MK2 granadas just parked up and left. Just baffled me

Film them from the pavement but crawling around in someone’s driveway opening doors and climbing in the cars is not acceptable, don’t agree with your sense of entitlement there, keep your hands off. At least knock on the door and ask if there’s no one home you leave you don’t touch people’s stuff.

Dont get why people for years and years just leave their cars to rot in front of their houses....if you dont want to use it anymore sell it or scrap it etc but i find the leaving it standing very strange. I believe tgeres a Lotus specialist in Cornwall that could take thst Espirit on. The 21 turbo was known back in the day for being almost as rapid as the Sierra Cosworths of the time.....somebody would love that but I bet parts would be hard to find now.
@straightsix91409 ай бұрын
Well ,turns out a very good investment as everyone one else scraped or sold theirs ....... Hoarders are responsible for a lot of the classics that still exist today , and they should be applauded for that . The ones making noise now are the ones who sold or scraped theirs back in the day and regret it and cant afford to buy one back today ....
