Title: scrapyard prices
Post by: FoxyV6 on 11 July 2010, 17:15:24

im looking at getting shut of my car and was wondering if the scrap prices where still good? I havent got the time or money to start taking bits and pieces off, ive got it advertised as spares or repairs but im wondering if it might be easier to just ask the scrappy if they want it.

ooops ETA: its my old Cavalier not the Omega :-[
