Having Fun Trying to get rid of 3dr
No salvage companies want to know, as there is no money in it for them, being jsut a static shell.
Trouble is i need a COD for insurance purposes.
Thought they would be lining up for it with the cost of scrap metal at the moment.

The price of scrap steel nose dived last week.
My local scrappie is paying Ł35 a tonne. Said it hasn't been this low for 8 years!

that was an option, but need a C.O.D, which im sure a metal merchants cant do.
but its messy, and a right pain to chop up a shell.
Silverlake have phoned and said they will pick it up tomorrow, let hope they turn up with a high ab, or the shell aint going anywhere.

Any scrap dealer if licensed, would still give you a C.O.D providing the VIN plate is still on the shell and matches the logbook.
