A photograph in the hedge would be good, I wonder what it will make at auction.

At some point in the very early '80s I made the sign of the cross and parked my sister's Marina under a hedge at the cottage. All it needs is a clutch. Does this make me rich?

I believe that's called absolution and deserving of a big thank you from the rest of humanity!

bizarrely I think it would be a lot worse than that if it really had been in a hedge, and of all the ways to describe a Barn find, I cannot think that the new variation of "in a hedge" is likely to help at auction. It would rather confirm to me that you will be need quite a bit doing to it. The option of leafing it alone doesn't exist, but no doubt it will blossom into something. perhaps an ex Hawthorn car. ( excuse the date issues!) :P

Were it a Triumph one could say it was resting under its Laurels.
