Driving round Roselands


As you drive round Roselands, a residential estate in Paignton, you will notice a red car and a white van parked in some one's drive, slowly rusting away. They have been there so long that they were probably mentioned in the Doomsday Book.
Don't worry, one day when the owner gets round to it and has a spare afternoon he is going to do them up and sell them. Either that or it's part of an ecology experiment to see how long it takes for a motor vehicle to biodegrade.
Keep watching.

I like the car, shame nothing has been done about it. Is that a Humber?

It's a Hillman Hunter, no number plates so I don't know how old it is.
Click on the photo and it will enlarge.

A washing machine and two TV sets have been added to the pile so maybe it is turning into a work of art.
