Was thinking about how I had two Ford coupes once upon a time, then I remembered seeing an old yellow Ford coupe just sitting in someones front yard from 2001. I still remembered the street name, so I thought why not google earth it to see if the cars still there, low and behold nearly 10 years later and the old girl is still sitting there. Cant see to much detail but its still yellow.
Anyone else done the same thing?

You do realise that google maps isn't "live". In some cases it is quite a few years old.

But its still quite likely that if a theif saw afroboy's house and his XY on google maps, they may go to his address personally.

I looked up my street and my old VK Director was out the front, it was always in the garage but I was forced to leave it on the street one night because the fuel pump busted just as I got it home one afternoon, I was hoping someone might steal it
