ok, not the best way to make money once you've factored in all the running around and travling anf fuel etc (a bit like them lot over on spannerman or whatever it's called where they buy a shitter and then spend a week polishing it up and then flog it for 50p' worth of profit, at least the dominic littlewood fella puts labour into the equation when he does his rags to riches thing) but if the scrap man is willing to pay me £50 for my car thats a rotten shitter with absolutly northing vaulable left in it and just a shell then that's what i'm going to do as the bits are worth more than £100 to me
I know what you mean mate. I trade cars full time but theres only a couple people i know who make a living out of selling from one auction to another and they have 40+ cars at a time.
