    THE WORLDS UNSOLD CAR STOCKPILE

    Houston...We have a problem!...Nobody is buying brand new cars anymore! Well they are, but not on the scale they once were. Millions of brand new unsold cars are just sitting redundant on runways and car parks around the world. There, they stay, slowly deteriorating without being maintained.

    Apparently, having done some digging, most of these images are from 2009 and many of the cars shown have now been sold. So now they're littering the streets instead...

    It's clear from the picture they built too many white ones.

    Nobody wants a white car :P

    You know, I find that even more sinister. Especially along with all the excitable news stories in recent years about people buying more cars. "They" only need to find a way to get people to buy more cars and the problem is solved.

    Roseburn could do with a couple of car parks like that. Help the local shops you know.
