Thank you for your report.
Unfortunately, customer services are unable to log this as an abandoned vehicle at the current moment because the vehicle is currently taxed till: 1 March 2026
However if there are significant damaged such as, run down or unroadworthy, for example has, missing wheels or broken windows, then please email us directly (ask@peterborough.gov.uk) quoting your fix my street reference number and we can then pass this onto the enforcement officers to look into.
The council will not normally remove a vehicle that is taxed and in good condition unless there is strong evidence that it has not been in use for a long time and has been left on the highway or on private land without permission of the landowner
