A YouTuber just found a dealership in Japan that seems abandoned.

The dealership features all kinds of cars, from small Japanese kei cars to some vintage classics.

The building is abandoned but not falling apart, but the cars are in terrible shape.

The YouTuber has a whole theory about it.

The story behind the abandoned dealership in Japan

The dealership per se is abandoned, there’s no doubt about that.

Some of its windows are broken, the walls have gone moldy and black, and the paint on the dealership sign has faded.

Normally there’s rhyme or reason to these abandoned dealerships.

For example, a while back, another YouTuber discovered an abandoned dealership where all cars were clearly from the same era, and the same market segment.

On other occasions, other YouTubers found a Peugeot showroom that had been abandoned or a supercar showroom that suffered the same fate.

But this dealership has all kinds of cars in it.

There are Japanese kei cars, the smallest type of passenger vehicle generally sold only in Japan, and then there are trucks, old Bentleys, Minis, VWs, muscle cars – you name it.

Why the YouTuber says this might not be abandoned

YouTuber effspot has a specific theory about that.

He thinks that while the dealership, as a business, is clearly abandoned, the building per se is still being used.

He believes that somebody is simply using the abandoned dealership as a warehouse to ‘hoard’ vehicles.

We wouldn’t be shocked, as it wouldn’t be the first time.

There’s a shed in the UK where a collection of different vehicles, including fire trucks, is rotting away and falling apart, even though they are not abandoned.

They all belong to a guy who simply wants to keep stockpiling them, but doesn’t want to sell them.
