We Found Some Absolutely Incredible Classic Cars Left Completely Abandoned For Many Many Years...

Another car graveyard but possibly one of the best i have found in the UK so far! With some big name’s inc Jaguar, Lotus, Porsche & MG I honestly don’t think there could be a better collection.. or could there??? This location backed onto a fully working yard and we did bump into one o the workers who kindly asked us to leave so sadly had to cut our visit a bit short, but we were still lucky enough to see some super classic & extremely rare cars! As always the location will not be shared. And if anyone dose in the comments the will be removed & blocked so please don’t do it. Although these cars have been left for many years they still belong to somebody some. We asked and None of them are for sale. Hope you enjoy the video 🙂

The speedboat was my Dads sold 20 or so years ago sad to see it like that I remember it going to a fella that collected old cars would love to know where this is I used to go water skiing every Thursday as a boy at our local lake it’s a very rare boat as it’s a jet boat so no propeller so was a very safe skiing boat if you lifted the back you would have seen it has a 2.0 Ford Pinto engine.

[@jasonmaiden5026]

Was it a Glastron? I would have expected a big block Ford engine

[@williamdeegan7840]

I googled the Fiat Panda. That model the SISLY 4×4 came in 1987. They initially made 500 cars. Then in '89 it became a regular model . Pumped out a killer 50hp.

[@ASH.......................1976]

That Porsche under the cover is a 914 👍

[@chloemillington9883]

Hi the bearded explorer, this white series 3 Jaguar (14:00) that had been in an accident was my dads, we rebuilt the car from scratch! We sold it to somebody and Nigel farage’s driver ran into it, hence the insurance right off! I would love to get in contact over like Instagram to know exactly where and when you were there as I may try and get to see it myself! Thank you!

That BMW 2000 was last taxed in 2008. They were already collectible then, so it's pretty mystifying as to why it was left.

Are you sure, the 4dr convertible conversions were done by several companies in the 80s - looks like a plastic rear window to me?

So what happened to last weekend's video regarding the American scrapyard. Started watching it in the morning and was going to continue to watch it in the afternoon to find it had completely disappeared, what's the story behind that????

Maybe it was too much for the owner of the proberty?

C62NCA was the jag Nigel Farage’s Range Rover collided with, the Jag belonged to the Landlord of his local pub, according to the clips I found.it happened on May 9th don’t no what year ( possibly 2019) in Kent and yes it was the owners pride and joy. Big article in the Mirror.

[@harrisonhunter7512]

Very true banned Nigel from the pub too.

The completely buried Jag towards the end of the video, the 4.2.....That will also have been a V12! Probably over a million pounds in cars if all in good nick! I bet there is a hundred grand+ just as they sit!

[@greghall6950]

The porsche 944 and lotus look like genuine restoration projects.

[@marktgsxr]

Although we all love watching these videos we all have to remember that this is someone's private property and possessions that they can do what they want with!

[@TheBeardedExplorer]

This is very true! There may be personal reasons as to why these and all the other cars, properties that are left and you are right they can do as they wish 🙂

[@MrTreblue]

The rub for me though, is that at some point the owner must have loved these cars enough to have wanted to buy them, but then that raises the question, why leave them to rot... Makes no sense. It is such a bitter sweet thing to see these amazing videos but feel so overwhelmingly saddened to see such beautiful cars just slowly disappearing from our existence...

[@yodawg3469]

It's sad how so many let such nice cars rot away

[@tonymillerz]

If someone could put me in touch with the bearded explorer I would very much like to speak to him regarding one of the cars. If you got to 13.55 in the video you'll see the White jaguar xj6 reg plate C62***. My dad built the car to the standard that you see and when he sold it, it went down south, 2 months later it was written off by none other than Nigel Farage (in media papers) I would love to know location and if car was potentially save able or buy able.

[@jaggerkate]

What an awesome way to wake up on a Monday!

[@Subcat001]

Good video. The E-Type looks like a Series 3 judging by the 2+2 body and the flared arches. Even in this condition it's still probably worth something. The Stag should have a V8 up front. Triumph developed their own despite having access to Rover's V8. Unfortunately it had cooling issues. Lots ended up having Rover's V8 transplanted. The rotting roof is a separate hard top. The Series 3 Damiler is a relatively rare conversation. Whether it's worth anything is open to debate.

[@Subcat001]

Actually I'll correct myself. Didn't see the 4.2 badge first time. So it must be a series 2 E-Type despite the arches looking more flared. Unless it's a rare Pre-production series 3. Be interesting to see a plate.

[@ysbx]

The escort at 17:06 was my dads old one he owned back in the 2000s, shame the cars been scrapped now

[@jefftaylor-jacksonceng2154]

That Fiat Panda Sisley one of only 500 made for the UK. Someone save it before it's too late!

I thought when I saw those 2 newish ford focuses the site mite still be used, but what a shame, beautiful classic cars just rotting. The guy who got it now needs to tidy the site up and get some of these cars saved by a restorer or broken for parts. I wonder how many petrol would volunteer to help clean the site up to reveal more treasure.

love the Lotus excel , an under appreciated classic , I had one identical apart from it was a rare SA- 1 of 25 . only 135mph top speed but you didnt have to slow down for corners , better handling than an Esprit even .. galvanized chassis and fiberglass body , jet wash and good to go lol

[@pereldh5741]

Its funny hearing you say ”its sovjet looking” about the BMW 2000. When the Lada you’re referring to is an italian design from Turin (licence-built Fiat 124). And Münich is not far from Turin.. Altho almost ALL 4-doors of this size looked similar at the end of the 60’s. Compare the most ferce competitors, Fiat 125 or Alfa Giulia...

Worked on a jaguar v12, took two of us 13 hours to change the starter motor. Took it up on the freeway, power off the mark not that impressive, however at 100km still had as much acceleration as from a standing start. Forgot what speed I got it up to, but felt very safe and stable at high speed.

I know everybody says the same but I honestly find this so incredibly sad, the most beautiful cars left to rot and rust. Im sure if this people had the brain power to get the car if the first place they could buy a strimmer to at least attempt to keep nature away from them so they could be sold or put back on the road. Even a poor functioning E type is worth 40k minimum these days...

12:50 it is indeed rare. It's a limited edition. They could go up to 4k in good condition. 14:28 it's propably bought of copart auction or tried to sell it through copart auctions. The markings are for the state of the car for example, if it runs and drives or other issues etc. And judging from the leftovers of the auction sticker, it's close to 2 years sitting there. Great content, glad that the person there didnt got you into deeper trouble. Thank you for sharing, keep it safe!!!

[@jimking3288]

I wonder if these cars are like the Vauxhall Frontera with a 2.2 Vectra engine that I had until the timing belt snapped ? It was in great condition and a real work horse but no one would repair the damage and the price of putting a new engine in made it economically ridiculous and when I finally found a scrap yard that would take it of my hands he already had 8 of the same and that corner of his yard looked more like a new car showroom !!
