Found this while out walking in my local town at what appears to be a derelict house

search of the numberplate it hasn’t been on the road since 2008 and by the looks of it has been stuck in a back garden.

going to try locate owner and offer a cheeky bid.

hoping they are unaware of what it is and it’s value

surely as it sits right now its worth 10k even without throwing a bucket of water over it.

wish me luck

What a find. Bang the offer in and hope they accept. Would be a great buy if you can get it,

It’s been there a while there is a tree growing under the offside front.

from the MOT check at the last MOT it had 40k miles.

i hope the owner can be contacted and has absolutely no idea of it’s worth and thinks it’s just a rotten old 18 year old clio and will take a couple of hundred quid.

or if not even at 5 grand its a bargain, 5k to buy, 5k tops to recomission and it will be worth 20k plus.
 

Seriously?

Wow, hope you get it. Coincidentally, I was passed by a bright red Renault 5 Turbo 2 the other day. Looked very old skool, but pretty awesome none the less with the ridiculously wide rear track.
Can't be many of those left?

Sid the owner says it’s not for sale but it would be good to talk.....

i think Sid likes collecting things



It’s a mk1 clio V6 so makes me want it more.

exactly the same as this but obviously been in a garden for 12 years.

Given the apparent scarcity of such things at the moment, I'd bid him on all those pallets - they're probably worth more than the car :D
