You're not allowed to park an unregistered car on the side of the road, not so sure about the law with deregistered cars though. I imagine it's probably an offence. So yes you could easily be up for fines.

They would have fined him straight away, and not given warning to remove the car. Councils are fun like that.
Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.

I don't think they fine you, but you're liable for towing costs if you want the car back.
