The Department of Infrastructure is threatening to tow away a number of abandoned cars from Tesco's car park in Lake Road in Douglas.
The cars, including Chryslers and Range Rovers with registration plates from the UK and Isle of Man are parked in the supermarket's car park close to the Nunnery.
Former Douglas councillor Frank Schuengel posted photos of the vehicles, which all have DOI notices on them saying they must be moved or else they'll be taken away within 15 days.
It's thought a number of the cars had been parked in the Lord Street car park, which closed to vehicles three weeks ago.
