TC in bad way - Well worst I have seen!!!

Post by JubileeNut » Thu May 10, 2012 7:21 pm

Anyone know where abouts this is or if it is even still there?
It was there July last year according to the pictures.
Looks like it has sunk in to the ground from the first picture and the second one! Either that or someone tried to move it and it just started to crumble. :cry:

Reg - VEY 774M

8th Jan 2011 Picture

30th July 2011 Picture

So sad people leave any car just to rot away like this.
MK1 TC saloon so rare now.
May still be good for spares :idea: :roll:

After reading the comments looks like it is owned by a guy who is keeping it for spares for his other TC, anyone on here?

:roll: Blimey Paul, the first picture is bad enough, but i can't believe how much more it has deteriated in the second one - just a few months later :cry: . As you say, even then there looks to be some bits that could be recovered.

If you read the comments, the first photo was a few years old when it was uploaded.

It is at quite an impressively advanced state of decay...

What's the Triumph next to it ? Looks like either a Herald S or a Courier van by the grill .
