This one appears to have been abandoned and rusting near the Besant Nagar bus stand in Chennai.

Just saw a Black Supra rotting at Bharat Petroleum pump Near Dadar TT circle.

Wheels, Headlights, Taillights, Door handles, etc were missing.

It's not rotting. It's gone for a paint job.

That is definitely not Dadar TT. The car is being rebuilt completely, and has been where it is for quite sometime now.

Good to see it back on the roads, albeit in a much different avatar.

Attaching a pic I managed to click a couple of days back.

This poor old Mercedes W123, which I believe is a 300D has been lying in this lane at Shivaji Park for more than a decade, as far as I remember. As per my knowledge, it is a restoration project that was abandoned in between! I think the owner also has a Grey W202 and white W123, in decent shape . I wonder why the he isn't doing anything about this one and just letting it sit there:(
The rust is absolutely terrible on this! RiP 123!

Good to know that it is there for restoration. That is Just in front of the marine mercantile department which is quite close to Dadar TT circle.

You seem to be confused I think. The location of the car, both in my picture and the one you posted, is around 10kms from Dadar TT. Hence, definitely not in/around Dadar TT
