I saw this on facebook and did a bit of digging, yes, the original poster seems to be from the Bournemouth area so it's hidden away down there somewhere.

I looked at Karl Eric Malberg's excellent 1800 pictures website and unearthed a red 46 ES, 9K at the end of the registration number, driving lamps fitted, photo taken in 2007 at the Gaydon Volvo marque day. It's clearly deteriorated a lot since then, albeit a VOC badge has been fitted! (see photos)

Probably only suitable as a donor car but who knows? a shame to see it like that though.

Interestingly another red 46 ES turned up on facebook the next day in Suffolk but in seemingly far worse condition, for sale at £2k, perhaps enough to make one good car from the two!
