Im not loving it....this is why you cant pick up all the good cars like escorts, chevettes and sunbeams anymore, there was a sunbeam in aylesbury untill last week that was there wince i was at school, loads of good cars have gone for scrap now, gone forever

Down to £120 in N london

rules here are if it has an engine in the bay it needs a log book, if the engine is in the boot it goes in as light iron and no record is taken .

The way around the waist carryers liecence is i sell the car to the frag yard (if it's compleat and the V5 is there) i have no idea what they do with it after they pay me, it's thier car now, i carry cars not waist

On it's way back down here aswell, amazes me mind when you hear at so and so area they are paying £240 and figs like that, never got near that by me

 

be glad when it goes back to a ton a ton i must be honest, The cost of buying scrappers in to strip is a nightmare at the moment, folks bringing in mk3 fiestas with not a sausage of a good spare on it and wanting £200 cos there 'mate ' said it's worth £500 in scrap

the current scrap prices are gonna be the demise of many an old car. There has been a capri sat in a yard for years near me and he would never sell it (and when he did put it up for sale wanted way ott for it). Well on the way to work on monday, saw it on the back of a pikey truck no doubt on route to the crusher

How much are people getting a ton for alloy in your respective areas??

 

Just cashed a load of wheels in at the rate of £800 a ton, don't seem very much to me???

bout 7.50 a kilo local to me. not sure what that is per tonne

 

depends where you take it i think, iv changed places now as the old one used the old weights on a lever scales and i didnt trust them, digital scales seem to pay more
