Another Ax I bought off a mate (for £75!) had a block of strong mature cheddar unopened in a rear door pocket. It was a good few months out of date and had an odd feel to it, needless to say it didn't get opened!! lol Wuss. Me and a mate were doing a house clearance and came across a bottle of amstel that expired in 1982. We cracked that bad boy open and supped it's finely aged contents. |

Shotgun shell x2 and flick knife x2 in the glovebox of my latest steed. Nice. pretty bad ass/ scary hahaha. what car is it? Citroen ZX estate, with the notoriously gangsta 1.9 non-turbo diesel. I did actually check with the (perfectly nice) bloke that he had everything he wanted from the car, he said yes, just bin what's in there! Plenty of other curse word in there but nothing of any interest/worth. Haven't had a proper poke around yet so may still find some juicy stuff... |

While stripping the dashboard out he found what was left of the previous owners right foot, still in it's trainer, wedged in the pedal box. He wasn't sure what to do with it, so it ended up in the bin. Would have given to the funeral director, then the family would have had more of the guy to put in the coffin |

Why would you need an air freshener for a surf board?

The wood in the door rings a bell  When I bought the celica, the PO told me that the rear window mechanisms weren't working properly. A few days later I checked... no mechanisms and some 2x4 propping the windows up... |

It wasn't my car and i didn't buy it but at a local scrappy about 10 years ago there was a royal mail van. Was all smashed up at the front but in the back it still had loads of letters in. Someone probably never got their birthday card.  |

A few days later I checked... no mechanisms and some 2x4 propping the windows up... oh yeah, that's why I meant to reply in the first place. Got and sold on a Daewoo Matiz. had complaints about the electric windows not working but it got taken to a mechanic. Four months later it got traded back in to me against another newer car and the passenger window was held up with some 2x2. Who put it in i don't know, but it wasn't the best bodge ever done! |

In my first Transit circa 2001, found an old Holborn golf umbrella, a Machete, a manky toothbrush and various porno mags.
In a mkV escort estate there was also a few pairs of grotty old boxer shorts complete with the obligatory "sh!t kisses"

not really something interesting, but i was amazed to find the complete and original toyota toolkit in the LiteAce van. I thought a nice little set of tools that that would have walked years ago.
