FU and your stupid wiper linkages that are made of metal except for the joints which are made of super-brittle plastic. FU for charging £120 for a replacement, and FU for making the bit it bolts to out of tin foil.

Shame you have an Alfa i got loads of motors & linkages on the shelf but we don't strip Alfa's they get binned. :P

Does it cost money to scrap a car?
-
You get paid if you can take it to them, something like £120 average, it varies all the time, make sure you ring around

My son just got £160 for his mondeo and they collected it.

Cool :thumbup:

If you had a better car i would recommend stripping a few bits yourself for ebay and then scrapping the rest as the weight will be nearly the same less lights, mirrors, bumpers etc and its a way to
maximise your profit ahem reduce your loss :D

I should've done that but I don't get the time. I had a score to settle with that bastard car and I scrapped it a few weeks back - the clutch was bouncy as hell on the way to the scrappy so I think it was the right time. I got ~£130 for it and I got a few quid back off the tax disk.

gypsies took my transit van & gave me £250 for scrap :o)
I paid £700 for it & had it for over 5 years. So cheap motoring :oD

Most transits are worth more than £250, i sold one with 190k miles, no mot and riddled in holes for £450. The doors on High tops can easily sell for £150 a piece for the rears.
