    Airport operator Finavia told Yle that Vantaa’s parking enforcement will eventually tow away vehicles that appear to have been abandoned. If left unclaimed, the ownership of these cars will eventually transfer to the city of Vantaa, where the airport is located.

    Pfft. Sounds like free cars to me.

    Would have been nice if they had left the keys…I think I would have considered it if I knew I wasn’t coming back. But those all look like they were driven by the rich.

    Hopefully the local authority do something interesting with them when they get ownership. Donating Ukraine for example. I’d imagine that even if they are too difficult to get keys for they, the more common/utilitarian vehicles can break for important spares.

    That said, I’m sure then cars pictured are likely indicative of the whole range that has been left, so probably not.

      This is the lock picking lawyer, on the scene in Helsinki. Here’s some tips on how to open an abandoned car, and switch out the ignition switch…

            Wait, are you saying that regulation helps consumers? That’s fucking wild bro

            Immobilisers have been mandatory in all new cars sold in Germany since 1 January 1998, in the United Kingdom since 1 October 1998, in Finland since 1998

      If I were a tow truck operator in Helsinki, I’d be seriously considering just grabbing those cars.

      It’s okay. I’ll take that x7.

      Not because I like them, or even see the point with SUVs.

      But it’ll be nice to sit in the oppulence for a couple of minutes before I sell it.

    Why are they abandoned there? How did it happen? Is it because of the one way travel from Russia?
