Abandoned cars can be found in various places such as garages, barns, forests, and fields. One interesting example of an abandoned car is a 1987 Land Rover Range Rover discovered in a forest in Wales. Surprisingly, this car has only driven 23,000 miles.

The exterior of the Land Rover is covered in dirt and leaves. The hood is hidden under decaying foliage, and the car’s surface has green lesions. Inside the cabin, which now serves as a storage space for other forgotten items, the interior remains in fairly good condition. The buttons on the center console are still shiny, and the dials on the dashboard clearly display the mileage of 23,000.

Despite being abandoned in the woods for a long time, the Range Rover’s engine and underbody appear to be in good shape. The engine bay is dirty, but the engine itself looks well-maintained. There is a sticker indicating that the car was last registered for the road in 2005, suggesting it has been sitting there since then. The tires, although flat, still have a considerable amount of tread.

The Range Rover was discovered alongside an old Subaru Impreza and another Land Rover, both in poor condition. These vehicles are also covered in dirt and sap, with flat tires and their wheels sunken into the ground.

Through a check of the car’s license plate, it is confirmed that this low-mileage Range Rover is a 1987 model. The original blue color can still be faintly seen beneath all the dirt. The Land Rover is equipped with a 3.5-liter V8 engine, which had a power output of 165 horsepower 35 years ago and a top speed of 107 miles per hour.

It is perplexing to think about why someone would abandon a car in the woods. It’s sad that someone parked it there, walked away, and never returned. Clearly, the car and its contents were once important to someone, but now they are left to decay. Despite its less than excellent condition, the low mileage of this SUV makes it an ideal candidate for restoration.
