Re: [doc] Re: Driving a D b4 registering

[Mike Green <mikedx@xxxxxxxxx>]

Theres a car about 4 miles from here.. No tax, unlikely to have any
MOT and almost certainly no insurance. Its sat on the main road for
nearly 6 months now (maybe more).. It looks kinda like a delorean
(alfa romeo). I was considering "adopting it" at one point but i might
not have to now. So it seems some councils are happy to tow cars away
after 7 days and others just leave the car(s) to rust!

Interesting thing about that car too is that its still in one piece
after 6 months.. no smashed windows, no keymarks.. nothing.
