Have you ever wondered what an abandoned car dealership looks like?
It’s not a pretty site.
In Germany, an explorer named Jessey stumbled upon a ‘ghost’ dealership frozen in time, with vehicles and parts left behind as if the owners just walked away.
The place housed several high-end models and thousands of forgotten car parts.

Abandoned car dealership in Germany
The car dealership featured several Kia models, including two Kia Clarus models parked outside and a Kia Rio from the early 2000s found in the workshop.
Surprisingly, a modern Kia Ceed was also left behind, raising questions about why such a brand-new car was abandoned.
Jersey documented the abandoned showroom on his YouTube channel Forgotten Buildings.
It was eerily similar to this abandoned Ford dealership that still had new ’80s cars inside.
According to the YouTuber, the abandoned Kia dealership was once owned by two brothers.
A conflict resulted in the dealership’s closure
Sadly, a bitter conflict between the brothers about 15 years ago led to the closure of the place.
Even after the showroom shut down in 2019, the workshop reportedly remained in operation for a while, but that didn’t last for long.
The explorer also came across the abandoned Volkswagen Passat and a Kia Carnival, with the latter still bearing its dealer sticker as a 2005 model.
Sadly, the place has been sitting untouched for years, and there seems to be no hope for its restoration.
