Abandoned Mercedes racks up £14,235 in car parking fees

This Mercedes has remained gathering dust in the bowels of a multi-storey car park for THREE YEARS. That’s a staggering £14,235 in parking fees.

But the crock in the bay – cordened off by a safety barrier – may soon be moved from Broadway Plaza, off Five Ways, Birmingham. The local authority has been asked to remove it after attempts to track down the owner drew a blank.

Police have also become embroiled in the motor mystery. They’ve discovered the car was not stolen or involved in crime.It is still not known why it was simply left to rot in the Plaza basement.

If nothing else, the car has proved a talking point among punters using the £13-a-day multi-storey, with imaginations running riot.
