LA56 OCP
Blue Fiat Punto
This Fiat Punto arrived in Hollingdean in early 2024, parked on Hollingbury Crescent and partially overlapping a neighbour's driveway.
Residents report that it has not moved, and the owner has not been seen since. It is not a local resident's car, and is suspected to belong to a student living further into town.
This Punto is in a very poor state of repair with missing wheel trims, a flat tyre, and a large dent in the boot.
Non-residents using Hollingdean to store their run-down or unwanted vehicles long-term like this is very common, with a large number of vehicles simply left for months and even years at a time unmoved, often left awkwardly blocking pavements or driveways (as is the case here), and removing what little parking would otherwise be available to residents.
