Claire does your car have an mot and what year is it

Son in law sold his old cr for scrap  - that was AFTER he had stripped it of what he could use on the new one.  He was unable to use his car for six months because he was ill - final straw someone slashed his tyres.  He still got over £100 for it from a company advertised in the local Guardian.

I just scrapped my beloved Espace with  http://www.cartakeback.com/ came round the next day and gave me £160 in cash. They will give you a quote on their site without having to register.

You don't need to fill out any forms as the DVLA notification is now done online. They email your certificate of destruction within hours.

It is 1995 Merit with an MOT till mid Dec

Thanks for the info on Cartakeback.com How did they pay?

Croydon Car Spares (8484 3319) will also pay for and collect scrap cars.
They are GLC Licenced and so you know all the paperwork will be taken care of.
We have used them several times at Carpenters and found them very reliable.

How much they will give, will depend on the condition of the pannels that they would normally sell. Ie boot, bonnet doors etc are only worth selling on if they are in good condition.

If no better offers put on Ebay.  If clean looking car should get few offers from on-line scrappers.

Thanks for all your advice. We used http://www.rewardingrecycling.co.uk/  in the end and it seemed quite efficient.. Very happy to have got something.
