Fascinating.
When I lived in Liverpool I knew a guy who had a Fiat 132 Coupe.
Wonder if it's the same one?
Possible.

| If I owned an AMC Pacer I'd have hidden it too. A most horrible car both to look at and apparently to drive too. I remember Chris Goffey (I think) road testing one. |

A tad off topic but may be of interest  there are many tunnels under Liverpool that were never designed or used for anything. The tunnels were built and conceived in the early 19th century by eccentric businessman Joseph Williamson, who paid soldiers returning from the Napoleonic war to build them. No records were kept of how far they stretch, nor which direction they go in.
Many are filled up with Victorian rubbish
