Forums Forums Enthusiast Forums A - Z Autowirral Best Price for Scarpping my car

Hi all, need to scrap my clio as needs a new engine which is more than what the car is worth. It still has 10 months MOT. Where is the best place to get the most cash for it?

Think the scrapys will give you around 60_80
I got more from weighing it in.

Buy a used engine and keep the car. £75 on ebay

whats the difference? weighing it in? never heard of it being done that way, thought you just had to scrap it?

Then there is the cost of taking the old one out and putting the new one in. it's the 1.4 version so apparently its more difficult than if it was the 1.2 version.

The scrap yard will pick it up and may use it for parts. Or weigh it in and theyll crush it

I got an ad from Stoneacre the other day offering a minimum £1500 in part exchange. I notice other dealers doing similar stunts. If the car is drivable, and you want to buy another not necessarily new car, you might trythis route.

Am now on the same process. First route ebay whole car as spares/reapir only, or specific spares like seats and things you can easily dismantle without affecting it going to scrap yard, or tyres if good someone got same model and swop whole wheel over. Battery also. ive got a bosch in that still got 2 years warranty.
