Some brilliant finds like - such a good feelin when you find summat like that 
Imagine how many other cars are locked away yet??? Even lock ups and garages everywhere there are bound to be a few surprises - wish I had the authority to go around checkin them
Thing that scares me is like that RS500 - if someone knows nothing apart from the fact its an old D reg Sierra - they'll not think twice about scrapping or crushing it

theres a black 3 door near us, its sat on a drive down a cul-de-sac, its been there for at least 8 years that i know of, blanket over the front seats & dash, tyres half flat & perished, moss/mould growing out the window seals etc...
i've spoke to a few people who have tried to buy it but the old couple who own it won't let it go!
