I found a Welsh parking fine for £70 (not mine)
. Also when I took out the back seat there was a new full can of coke from the 90's (I always wondered what that rattle was).

Other than a spare axle shaft in the boot, a spare trafficator lens in the parcel tray. I've owned the car for over 25 years and found these only this year!
I was given a 1985 Saab Turbo, years ago, that was stored for 4 years inside a garage. I found an open carton of milk in the map pocket. There were some kind of bugs around it, all dead. The car smelled so bad I gave it to my BIL. He LOVED the car!
