Poor abandoned 75!!

Just watched a new episode of Bearded Explorer on Youtube where he was exploring an abandoned mansion. Also left abandoned at the house is a lovely silver mk1 V-reg 75 with a V6 inside. What a waste and the brief look seems to show a pretty decent car, probably not moved for over a decade.

Interestingly, a new V5C was issued in September 2013 and the MoT expired 3 weeks later.

One possibility is that the owner died (annual mileage has been very low) and the car was inherited by someone who wasn't interested in keeping it in the long term.
