Report (Permission Visit) Mercedes-Benz Graveyard Northants April 2024

[The Young One]

Can't find much history on it but judging by some of the cars they have been sitting for a long while. There is also a house on site but can't seem to get into that as it is boarded up and metal fenced. If any of you know what these cars are then please let me know.

I only explored a third of this place so will definitely be going back for more later in the year. Thanks for reading!

although “grave yard” it does look like someone’s actual business

It is, the business name is in the last photo.

I had a permission visit around here a few years ago, it's a cool place. Some real rarities there at that time including a Mercedes 600 Grosser and a fintail Mercedes estate.

600 Grosser one of my dream cars! Don't suppose you've got any old photos of it?

There wasn't a lot left of it as the glass and interior was totally gone and most of the rear end had been cut off presumably to repair another Merc but it was still a Grosser. The front was penned in by shrubbery and oil barrels so real difficult to get a photo of.

Used to go there years ago, doing the windscreens for them and the haulage company next door. No registration numbers were ever needed or required..
