Nice snaps. Someones cut the grass.

Another amazing thing - the Austin still has it's tyres up after god knows how long.

They could obviously have been pumped up at some time. However, examining the debris between the front tyres and the concrete floor indicates they have retained this 'fill' of air for a long time. The internal storage obviously is one reason for this - minimum UV exposure and less chance of extreme temperatures. Wheel rims in good condition, tyres and valves etc of good quality are other criteria for retaining pressure over extended periods. The British climate and security of goods in the bed of the pick up meant that a van, of some form, was more the thing here - not so in Australia, where the climate and vast open, unpopulated spaces made this type of vehicle ideal.
 
I've often wondered if these places do have the hidden cctv cameras they warn about!

Some do, but there's gotta be something worth the cost of fitting and monitoring, it's usually an insurance stipulation, All live MOD sites have them.

I enjoyed it sureshank, Thanks
 
Awesome, sorry to drag an old thread up but I don't frequent the forums much these days.

That Austin hasn't been taxed since 1985! The building looks familiar but I can't for the life of me think where it is. That's the thing with the forum, I'd love to go and see these local sites but don't know where they are (I do completely understand the rules though :) )
