Scrapping Car's

[Ryyy]

Does anyone know how much roughly Scrapping Companies would give you in exchange for your car...The companies that say "We will buy your car for blah blah"..Do they just give you peanuts?

[Petey1991]

scrapyards i think give you about 150 if you drive it in i think not positve.
also have you still got your vtr alloys

[Ocego_VTR]

you usually pay them to scrap your car

£100 it is

[bluenotesmiley]

Yeah the places round here do. I think it was Reclamet that gave my mate about £80 for his Ford Scorpio with a knackered engine. It was one of the top of the line models with full leather interior with heated seats etc etc. Told him breaking it would've probably been better.

i scrap cars, price per ton at my weighing yard is 120 per ton.

R.I.Scrap to your saxo end of

EDIT : how long have you had your saxo ?

[Ryyy]

They must give you something because they wouldn't say "We will buy your car" lol!
Its just I want rid of this Saxo (Failed MoT Badly) and imo is beyond repair so Whats the best way to get as much money back as poss?...Want to ask Previous Owner for money back lol...And yeah I have got the VTR Alloys Still why lol?

[Petey1991]

Tbh you will make much more money breaking the car. You have easily got more than £150 worth.

my mate got quoted £60 for his CAT off his corsa L reg, but he kept the whole car

[evans1089]

metal is like £200-£300 a tone at mo!

[Petey1991]

You could quite easily sell rims, headunit, vtr spoiler and kit

[turbotom]

Scrappys charge per ton as already said.... if your not breaking then fll the car with as much scrap you got and take it down... one of my mate bought a rotten rover 600 for 60 quid, drove it straight to the yard and they gave him 145 back!! easy money lol

[trcygrdn]

Why don't you sell for spares or repair. Someone might take it as a project to do up in thier spare time...?

that's great I'm good mates and my gf is cousins with Deatons, the scrap metal center, biggest in Derbyshire.
Altho the credit crunch is affecting business like you said with imports from china they still pay great prices for the scrap!

[Ryyy]

I think breaking it would be the best option to gain the most money back!
I haven't got the time to doddle about because the MoT runs out on 3rd and tax tomorow so Will have to get going!!

[Prickle]

scrap has fell around 200%

so my old man told me yesterday.... that was from the high prices though...

[baker556]

....make it heavier by spraying water on the seats which soaks it up :y:
