Default R.i.p.

I was around at the scrapyard today and found this. Poor car, it seemed to be in a pretty good condition.

Or probably a gone clutch??

Some DIY and TLC is probably all it needed before ending up there

P.S.
Also in the scrapyard, it looks way better than all the other euroboxes aruond it

Thats the way Norwegian scrappers work.... Its a shame...

If they take it apart for spares, the price of the spares is 1/3 to 1/2 of the price of new components from the UK. ITs not worth it.
