Amazing place.. Those have been dumped there from the late 70`s right up to the early 2000`s.. Crazy. TFG615K is a Fiat 125 Special (with the Lampredi twin cam engine) at 18:21 . The fact its not on the DVLA any more probably means it was dumped in there before the DVLA was computerised, circa 1980/81, same with the Morris Minor GKS584. The caged Mk1 Cortina was a stock car rather than a banger racer, going by its roll cage & box section bumpers, the 220 on the door was the drivers number, he probably dumped it there thinking no one would ever see it again! (or maybe it was nicked off of him, stripped of its engine etc, then dumped here). Before the mid 90`s, scrap was worthless, you had to pay scrappies to take them away, so a lot of people used to dump them instead. I reckon a lot of the pre-80`s cars there were dumped by owners, & the 80`s on stuff was stolen then dumped. I`m amazed they are so well preserved though. In theory a lot of the oils etc are still in them, so could be extracted without polluting the water any further, there's probably a good few grands worth of parts there, on top of the scrap value, although a lot of it could turn to dust when exposed to the air...

Some Cracking cars down there. the lake must be huge and very deep I loved the Cavalier (it definitely has less water in it than mine did when i got her!), Corsa and Mk1 Astra (Kadette)
Bloodyhell there’s some classics down there. I’ve always been a massive car guy, I’m in my late 30s now but growing up in the 90s you couldn’t go down a country lane in the back seat of the parents motor without seing a burnt out car and even my dads Granada got stole around 89 and set on fire and pushed in a canal that got stuck on the edge and I remember that day we went to the recovery yard to look at it half burnt, half not so I guess that’s where my fascination comes from of the unknowing thought of how? when? & why? they end up where they do. Loving this content. I’d love for you to dive the car cave in Wales as I’ve seen videos of the massive stack above the water but it goes further under water with cars and it looks deceptively deep and it’s already dangerous to access where the water level is.
Amazing that most of those cars would probably rusted much faster if they never got dumped in their, seems that fresh water has preserved them a little.
As a magnet fisher this place is a scrap yard 😮wouldn’t throw my magnet it would get stuck on a car but if someone was diving and hooking the trolleys for a team to pull would be a awsome experience clearing this place 😊
There's actually alot of salvageable parts down there, that first blue fiesta looks pretty good, seems mostly complete, there's money in that old stuff!!
Love the video, reminds me of all those old fresh water site I dived way back in the 60s, in 2006 I gave up diving. This similarity end here, as those places like Nazing pit in Essex, Stoney Cove Leicestershire were dull and boring by comparison, your dive has more, it’s like guess the car or remembering some of those car models owned down in the silt . The full face equipment used looks interesting a bit more upmarket than my Twin hose Royal Minstrel, I still own all my old equipment, including and new Gate pro dive suit used twice and a Northern divers 6.5 mm used a few times as I hated it, coming from an ancient Avon navy suit neck entrance to the 6.5 mm neoprene it felt like being strapped into a heavy rubber band. Hey ho happy diving days or yore..
Lake in Peterborough called fletton lake is exactly like this no one’s dived it but on clear days with a drone above sometimes you can see vans, cars, bikes, lorry’s.
cut junk food, sugar, do daily yoga or stretching, lift moderate weight and you will enjoy slow but steady change. you didn't become who you are overnight. so it takes time to revert back. enjoy every moment of change,
The chassis and floor pans on that mk1 metro look so solid I would if any of them would start with a bit tlc a vw van did after 30 years under water the engage was still free
The Morris ital van has telescopic front shocks a great upgrade for any marina and its spring hangers look solid the red golf is a 1.6 diesel and last taxd 31.5.90
I used to be a professional diver back in the 90s, always remember finding a 3 year old porche turbo in Birkenhead docks, gave the reg no & position to the police, I’ve always wondered if it was recovered.
Just shows how easy Fords n vauxhalls how easy they were to Nick. Obviously the Ford Anglia minus its roof was dumped & the stock car with 220 on it. Not surprised theirs a lada in their best place for it , not seen 1 in well over 20 years. Opel Kadett 1.3SR had 1 on a V reg around 1990 as his 1st car same as Mk1 Astra but went on sale here before Astra.
Who remembers those dreadful public information films about places like this. I wasn't afraid of the the old quarry full of wrecks but I was shit scared of that advert and the people who thought it was a good idea. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Have they just been dumped in there over the years by different people, or was this some sort of car garage getting rid of scrap cars. Interesting video. A lot of my era of cars . 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I'd say most of these cars were dumped when you still had to pay to scrap your car, the fact they are key components or have had bad wheel arch replacements etc makes me think they were knackered
@@BaronFlyingClubI’ll bet there’s some interesting of cars there. Great channel, I was having a mooch through. Went up in a Huey few years ago, it flies out of Preston. Absolutely brilliant experience, loved it.
Wow just watched this, how deep do you go? I did a try scuba in Corfu last month first time I loved it , we’ve booked to goto paxos to do deep water course PADI but now I’m having second thoughts as once I’ve spent 3 days doing course not sure if I’d get the opportunities to do many dives after , or should I just keep doing the try scuba dives ?
@@tospicy4ya This quarry is 12 metres or 39 feet deep. If you have done some PADI try dives and liked it then the PADI open water course would be your next step, that qualifies you to a depth of 18 metres or 60 feet. Good luck with what you decide to do. Cheers for watching!
@@divexplore21 I really loved it found it a lot easier than I thought , would you say train in uk then in Greece do some proper dives? What would be a rough cost of padi? If your on your own what happens if you 12 m down and your system fails , at what depth does the Benz happen? Sorry for loads of questions 🤪
Some of the vehicles dont seem to have number plates: a few people seem to have the opinion that they may be scrapage scheme vehicles that have been dumped. And they don't think a majority of them haven't been there for that long. Thanks for the video very interesting.
Scrap was at a point in the mid to late 90s if I’m correct where u had to pay to scrap your car in the uk I wonder if they was dumped down there around that time because there seams to be quite a few around the same age noticed a mk2 Astra gte wheel and a Sri cav a few quid in parts on them old fast Vauxhalls 👍
@@Jakehodson-d8r Yeah think you are correct. I had a similar comment saying the same thing about the 80s 90s scrap car situation. Too many here to be all stolen/dumped. Someone else said the Kadetts here are very rare now. Thanks for your comment. 👍
Mad. They won't start though. You've flooded it. I'll get my coat. For a similar time capsule, the entire Australian fleet was sunk off Darwin and you can dive there on WW2 tanks. If you ever get that way.
Our local scrap metal reclamation yard will pay you £80 for a complete car. There must be hundreds of pounds worth of scrap there, including the shopping trolleys.
I was thinking the same.Problem may be the cost involved of hauling them out,which would probably run into the thousands exceeding the total scrap value.
If you have the right training, equipment and confidence solo diving can be done relatively safely. There is risk involved in everything we do, it’s just a matter of management. Buddy diving does not guarantee your safety. Thanks for watching. 👍

Shame about the Mk1 Jetta. I really like those.

Our local scrap metal reclamation yard will pay you £80 for a complete car. There must be hundreds of pounds worth of scrap there, including the shopping trolleys.
I was thinking the same.Problem may be the cost involved of hauling them out,which would probably run into the thousands exceeding the total scrap value.
£80 for a scrap car is pretty low.
@@freeganjustin6699 I have just been offered £240 for mine...
Hiya interesting video, was the pink glock at 12:42 a BB gun it looked pretty authentic.
They might start.
@@fredcork1 Bit of a jump start, good to go! Lol
Imagine more cars being dumped over you as you look up!
23:19 looks like my name popped in the video!! My grandfather would have been proud!!
How come are those cars there?
Didn’t see a single fish!
@@turbosystem Yeah that surprised me too, the oxygen level must be very low in this quarry.
Beim IPad Fund, vorn links ein ganz kleiner...
Should check the boot/trunk! might find something.
Also, I'm no diver, but isn't going solo a no no?
Possibly something nasty!
If you have the right training, equipment and confidence solo diving can be done relatively safely. There is risk involved in everything we do, it’s just a matter of management. Buddy diving does not guarantee your safety. Thanks for watching. 👍
