I bought the worst car on Facebook Marketplace… it’s 20 feet long and doesn’t fit on the road – but what I found in the trunk still haunts me

A PETROLLER who bought the worst car on Facebook Marketplace was left stunned after making a terrifying discovery in the trunk.

The 20-foot Cadillac Coupe de Ville is so ridiculously long it barely fits on British roads.

Edwin Evans and Will Chandler got their hands on the classic 1970s bike after purchasing it for £2,900 via Facebook Marketplace.

The two car experts reviewed the car on their YouTube channel, Top Dead Center.

Edwin and Will were not surprised to find rust on the hood and in the trunk of the 8.2L engine.

But they soon made a horrifying discovery when they cleaned out the mess in the trunk of their car.

The pair were left speechless when they found a ‘bag full of blood’ among the abandoned belongings.

The engine was full of holes and made “strange noises” when the ignition was turned on.

The worst part was that the brakes didn’t work properly and the car was full of rust.

Edwin said they “wouldn’t restore” the car, even though they could because of the condition of the engine.

According to the experts, the top half of the Cadillac was in poor condition and the underside was no better.

The YouTubers discovered oil leaks and pointed out to viewers some rusty and damaged parts.

Part of the car was in such poor condition that car enthusiasts described it as something “out of an alien movie.”

Despite the Cadillac’s condition, car enthusiasts may be surprised to learn that it is fully road legal.

Because the car is over 40 years old, you do not have to pay taxes, you do not have to have an MOT inspection and you are even allowed to drive it in the city.

The Cadillac only needed to be insured before he hit the road.

After Edwin and Will had spent a few hours checking the engine, they were ready to go for a ride.

Edwin noted that the car seemed “quite warm” as they drove around and Will admitted the situation was “alarming”.

It wasn’t long before the two friends noticed that the car was breaking down and needed to be refueled.

Edwin was later left with his head in his hands when he was told they had paid nearly £3,000 for the rusty engine.

And the pair didn’t hesitate for a moment when they agreed that this was the “worst car” they had ever owned.

It comes after a top-selling car brand recently announced the imminent launch of 21 new models over the next six years – including a long-awaited sports car with a bizarre retro look.

Elsewhere, a car expert has revealed three fun bikes that cost less than £5,000.
