Newer Rotting Cars

v12 · 18th November 2014, 03:49

Not a "newer" - but newest of all the lot posted here.

A 2013 VW Polo GT TSI left to rot (probably). Going by the shower of blessings, I believe the car has been lying there since a long time.

Spotted a few left-to-rots at a local tinker's.

What a waste of a GT.
Wonder why it is just left like that, that too on a main road.

On similar lines, there is a brand new Punto which I see on my route back from work everyday parked on the road side un-used. Can't take a picture because it is dark when I pass by.

Hi there, is it in Mumbai? I think you should try getting some details of this car, as its probable that the owner is not able to take care of her and getting some more info means somebody else could benefit by buying it for a "good" price.

That's my dream car!

I'd be happy to take her off her owner's hands, who clearly doesn't care for her.

I know that place! Its next to the Ariel office jayamahal extension??
Did you spot an old esteem there? It has no tyres and all the interiors ripped off!

A Tata Ace found in this condition on the A.J.C. Bose Road. A petrol dispensing station here is being demolished to make way for some new structure.
Incidentally, this location housed the once famous "French Motor Car Company" a Tata dealer in the 1970's and 80's. Tata only made trucks then.The showroom displayed a 1930's black Rolls Royce ,that used to be visible for quite many years till the 1980's.

I've been eyeing these cars for quite a while now; waiting for the 'right' time to capture them. But I finally realised that, given their locations, there was never going to be a quiet moment to snap pictures of these cars!
And thus the after-work midnight bike ride and these pics!

I'm surprised the alloys on the Ford Ikon are still intact in BLR... I've known cases where they have been whacked even if parked overnight in HSR, HAL areas! Perhaps, the thief's are aware these are specific PCD's that don't fit elsewhere?

The car is in Mysore, not Bangalore. I should've mentioned that; sorry.

Even then, its 'parked' in quite a busy place, and maybe that's the reason why the wheels are still hanging onto the car!

Here are a couple of more cars:

( the NE 118 is at Rajajinagar, Bangalore and the Indicab is at Mysore. )

Edit: can pics of bikes be posted here?

An abandoned Fiat Palio 1.6 Stile from Bangalore. Clicked by Bro.
Hope someone will save this 100bhp soon.

Have been noticing a Blue Mitsubishi Lancer parked outside beleghata police station(Kolkata) since the last 2-3 months or more. When I last saw it i.e yesterday, the right side of the bumper had broken off, it was fit and fine when I saw it last before yesterday i.e a month ago. Sad to see a Lancer in such condition, one of my favourite sedans. :banghead:
