I would get it fixed
12 February 2006 (149)

Martin Down, Hampshire, UK

Found on the western side of Martin Down
nature reserve, in Vernditch Chase.

Dear Miss Piggy,
My car engine turns over, but it won't start.
I've checked the plugs, the points, the condenser, the coil, the distributor,
and I even sprayed carburettor cleaner in the carb -- but no dice.
What gives?
Stuck.

Dear Stuck,
It sounds to me like your car is broken.
If you need it soon,
I would get it fixed.

Will probably take quite some time and effort to fix it! Nicely captured. Somewhat reminded me of one of Adrian Reilly's recent PaD entrieshttp://www.pbase.com/mescaleroman/image/55352131 (Fascinating for me is also the mere fact that such wrecks can be found. Probably would not be possible in Austria - environment laws are very strict here)

Looks like it's been there a long time!!
