Default Something hiding in the bush.......
Now the sun has finally decided to come out we had a family walk today and found something lurking in the bush......



Closer inspection found a very sad looking MGB-GT (quite a late one too)




Strange thing is we did the same walk this time last year and must of walked straight passed it. Either that or that bush is rampant......

I believe you can claim ownership of abandoned cars via the DVLA

It was on a farmers land just off the farm track, so I would assume it belongs to him.
The barn was full of cows so no room for an MGB-GT.

If anyone is serious about recovering it or speaking to the land owner I can let you know where the farm is located.

Hi

Apologies for invading your forum but I run a register just for the special edition MGB's as per the one in the bush above Lol (www.mgbjubilee.com) and would be very grateful to know where this one is located/if it is still there in order that we can try to contact the owner?

Many thanks
