They clearly collect quite a range of items but it looks as if their specialty is Flexcon pressure vessels. 
Well it takes all sorts.

Somehow, I have a feeling that there are lots of people out there that have yards or whatever that look like this.
The photo incidentally was taken near one of the most infamous places in the world... |

OK UJ - I rise to the challenge of solving another of your riddles.
First guess - It is your backyard - the infamous place being your garage!!
Now give us a clue.

I dont think any German could be that untidy, even if he were allowed to be: so the answer must be 'A' ?
Then again... It is all stacked very tidily

UJ - You've got to tell me what that is on the rhs of the photograph, about 3/4rs the way down?
It has what looks like a chrome ball on the front, its red with circular black discs on its periphery - its the fireman in me that wants to know.  |

I havent a clue what it is, Scotty.
The place is not my back yard, or even Buzzy's...
It is in Germany though, so they are not all tidy. Even though it wasnt meant to be a quiz, the place name begins with a D... |

It's a Hadron Collider: you can distinctly see the Perchufter valve

Those aren't countries, they are towns/places with an infamous name from WW11.
Infamous for the camp, Dachau?
Infamous for Bomber Harris, Dresden? |

glad to be of service, buzzy...
Penman, yes, it is in Dachau, in the town.
I'm surprised that here are no comments about the car... |
