Default Factory unit find...Pics inside....

Working at a factory unit in Warwickshire, have worked there a few times but happened to spot a car out the corner of my eye today.....Its been there since 2006 as he "bought something faster".

The guy who owns the place is a multi millionaire and loves his car, at the minute he has a few Porshes, Ferraris, Evo X and Lambo......

Tucked in the corner of one of the units was this, amongst the boxes, pallets and covered in dust!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

'find' ??

how is that a find! its a dude storing a car in his own unit!

a find is when an old forgotten classic car is discovered.

cool plate for the car.

I quite like these old things. Never driven one, would like to.

I would like to have the cheese to roll like that, leaving a car in a unit for a few years since I didn't like the trade in price and fancied something faster.


Cheers,
Grant

Love that color combination, always the best on a Bentley.

Swear I've seen that somewhere before though, plate looks familiar.

What's the name of this place? PM me if you want. I'm not interested in robbing the car, lol, but from the contents of the unit he's in the same industry as me.....

It's a DRAWER!!!

"Draw" is something kids and draughtsmen do.
Or cardplayers and gunslingers.
