Also why say your mate knew about the field when you do, you should have said your mate told YOU!
Also you wouldn't be as kind as to tell me where that field is would you?

if that was next to me it would be gone especially if the guy that owned it has been in america for the last few years
theres a 16v astra gte up from me, its had one owner, got mot'd for a year and has sat for neerly 5 years, the old guy died a year and a half ago & my mates girlfreind has asked the daughter about it & she said she'd give us the keys next time she was here (at the dead guys house) but she is hardly ever there
but i also know where there's a mk2 rs2000, signal orange,7000 odd miles & the 1 owner that has it just leeves it sitting in his shed & he says its mint but i asked a mate about it the other day & says he'll never sell it & it rots away pisses me of that
a few years ago an old guy i knew sold very used cars from his house, then we heard everything got reposesed & chucked out his house so we went up to see what there was as he moved to england, & we sold about 5 of them & made about Ł450 or so, then about 2 - 3 months later we went back & the place was wrecked there was people taking his front door & all the inside doors so we took all the oil heaters & sold them to a mate that was building a b&b for 150 quid
oh they where the days

It's B59 WST , thought about asking if it's for sale but it's probably totally rotten, complete car though.

wen i was 15 i did some work in a garage which restored classic british cars for export to the states. i went to this house somewhere in the middle of wales n too look at it was nothing special. but as we walked up the driveway there was barns no higher than 7-8 ft high beneith the overgrown bushes. must have been 10 barns in total all jam packed with old classic fords, jags etc. i cant quite exactly remember everycar but remember spotting a ford model T, fiat 500, countless merc's n jaguars. the barn for me was the chaps 'ford only' barn. but what a sight it was! this chap needed shooting! if i was to say an rs500 in black with the roof chopped off would you beleive me??? well that was what i saw! among other fords like s1's + s2's, xr4i's etc along with huge amount of spares! couldnt beleive what i was seeing. turns out this chap was a rich kid who had inherited his late grandfathers wedding car buisness dating back over 70 years! he found it fun to do whatever he wanted to these classic cars!
