Re: The Real Field of Dreams
What an amazing collection of shit, there are only a max of half a dozen cars there I'd consider worth saving even in good nick!

I think I've asked before but did you spot any Aussie shite in there? Quite a few V8s ended up in Scotland when the oil guys were earning lots of money.

Re: The Real Field of Dreams
How long has this 'collection' being building up?
In a couple of the pics it looks like a tree has grown and tipped a car over into a Subaru pickup.

Re: The Real Field of Dreams
A lot of junk there (that Alfasud is spectacular - and didn't live long enough to make it onto the DVLA computer) but also a LOT of coin. The Beetles would yield a lot of rare trim, the T2 Vans and pick ups are worth enough to rebuild now.
405's in abundance. I can sense a van being rented and these being stripped for panels and bits. Most farmers know the value of their stuff to the last farthing though.

Re: The Real Field of Dreams
Strange how at home that P38 looks in a field of scrapped, older cars. As said, though, some of that VW trim will have survived and be valuable - the only things that can destroy some T2 and Beetle interior parts are Dubbers. Really do like pics like this, more so than car show ones!

Re: The Real Field of Dreams
Really good photos. Don't think I've seen that many 305 together. Amazingly they have a Fiesta. Do they sell bits?
These are some words.
