Abandoned Alfa Romeo store overflows with new cars

Somewhere in Belgium, an Alfa Romeo store is just standing there, falling into disrepair. The employees are nowhere to be seen, even though it's overflowing with new cars.

A YouTuber who goes by the name Leon_Urbex has documented an abandoned Alfa Romeo dealership in Belgium. The place, covered in dust and cobwebs, contains a number of nearly new cars that appear to have been forgotten.

In the video that Leon_Urbex has shared on his channel, he shows the condition of the abandoned building.

Through the fog outside, they notice a sign by a window that reads: “Your chance to own an Alfa Romeo.” Something confirms what the people behind the video suspected – that they have found a former car dealer.

– "Wow, check this out, the key is in the car!" Leon_Urbex exclaims when he discovers that some of the cars still have their keys in the ignition.

Leon_Urbex and his friends specialize in exploring abandoned places. But they believe it was a coincidence that they came across the many cars. Although the place seems deserted, they are cautious, as there may still be activity in the area.

Inside the shop, they find cars that appear almost new, despite the thick layer of dust and cobwebs. Several Alfa Romeo models, including the Alfa Romeo 166 and 159 JTDM, are parked alongside other cars such as a Fiat Punto and a Fiat Abarth.

– It's a car graveyard with cars that really don't belong in the scrapyard, writes Leon_Urbex about the discovery.

Although the site appears abandoned, the team wonders how such a well-preserved collection could have been forgotten. They note that if the area were still in use, it would probably appear cleared or at least better maintained.

The video doesn't give a clear explanation as to why the store is in this condition. But in a comment six days later, Leon_Urbex shares more details. He says the place is still used as a parking lot and a spare parts warehouse.

"It appears that the building is simply very poorly maintained," he writes, emphasizing that moisture and dust make the whole thing appear abandoned.

The video has received many reactions from viewers. One comments:
– As an Alfa enthusiast, it really hurts me to see all the rare cars in there.

The experience has raised awareness of the unique place, which arouses both wonder and fascination among car enthusiasts. But this is actually not the first time Boosted has written about this kind of thing. Back in March, we came across another abandoned car dealership where cars are rusting. Read more about it here .
