Abandoned red volvo at top of Lucklands Road/Purlewent Drive

This is abandoned on the corner of these roads but the abandoned vehicle is parked haphazardly and might block emergency vehicles if they need to attend. Please could this be removed? The MOT expired on 1/10.

  • Following our review, we can confirm that this vehicle does not meet the criteria for classification as abandoned under current guidelines. Vehicles with valid tax but no MOT, and without visible signs of neglect—such as flat tyres, broken windows or excessive dirt, are generally not considered abandoned. It is not uncommon for vehicles to be parked for extended periods due to legitimate reasons, including storage, travel, or pending repairs. Should the situation change or new concerns arise, we encourage you to submit a fresh report for reassessment.

    The report is now closed, further comments may not be monitored.
