Post by: sticka_v8_init on 12 October 2011, 22:35:44

I'm in South Wales, scraped a car 4 months ago and the yard told me it was £185/ton, drive in.  I got £130 for it with no alloys/bumpers/interior/lights/rear beam or rocker covers/mics engine parts.

Oh yeah, that was a '94 Cav V6 saloon.

Prices vary country wide.  They guy who bought the rear beam of me stated they were paying £250/ton in his area, Newcastle.

Best bet, call a couple of your local yards, see what they offer.

The prices of scrap fluctuate quite a bit, last time I took a shell in it was £165 per tonne ;)
