Failed M.O.T..Now its for the scrapper:sorry:

Have you been given a price per tonne?
If so how much?
 
its £185 a tonne round here at the minute it was £195 2 weeks ago
scrapped a corsa shell with a transit di engine inside it and got £126
 
it looks like Davey B is having it now for the engine and stuff..so its not for the scrapper at the mo.lo....my car may live again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
but obviousley if it does not get taken on i will be scrapping it...I already have my eye on a nice flame red 1.6....but i dont know the price he wants for it yet..i have seen it about at work with a sign in the window but he wasnt in yesterday si i will have to wait till i see him again...give it a check over.lol......I guess the main thing is too look for rust.lol....it looked all right from over the road anyhow...but my car was ok when i spotted it so i didnt take a good look at it.Grrr...i didnt take the number down either..

Well thats funny........ Scrap has been going up every month now for the past 6 or so. I can pay £175 down here witch is the hightest it has ever been (EVER)
 
looks like its going to the scrapper as the prices or car delivery/transportation are extorsionate! <--(sp)

over 130quid !

**** that!
 
cant you drive it?
 
With no MOT? :lol:
 
oh well...i doubt i will get much at the scrapper for it but i need to get it off the road...the tax is coming off it 2 day and insurance....only bought my tax disc bout 2 week ago so i should get like 40 quid back maybe...+what i get for the car..and what i have may be enough to pick up a cheap Mk3 ...autotrader online will find summat i believe.lol or maybe ebay motors?
 
Well....its now gone to the scrapper...for 60 lousy quid...but i will get 40 off my tax disc so that makes it 100quid...better than nothing i suppose but i am still gutted..that car has travelled a long way with me..right up and down the country.lol...

why didnt you take the exhaust off it?

lol...it had to be welded on when it was fitted as it was a universal backbox I dont have the tools or anything for it so i left it on...i took everything else off ..and put the orange indis back on and the original grill...i now have a full irmsher kit in my back yard.lol including a g.s.i grill,and clear indis...i might sell the lot so i can buy the 1.6 P reg a.s.a.p..before it gets snatched up:heh:
I also have my alloys too as well..they are goin on the new one if i get it..and i will sell the ones in the pictures off.

why mate, just wait until you get the money. Trust there will always be another good car come along. Keep the kit. I woulda stripped the whole car parts that are worth it and sold em off. Made ya money back then.
 
yeh..the kit in flame red would look awsome....I now have visions in my head.lol
