i ran in a cabrio shell rilled with bikes are general metal crap and it was 125 per ton, i get 140 becaus ei go thru a mate who is matey with then weighbridge guys

may be worth chuckign it on gumtree for Ł250 1st then it may go without hassle otherwise call your local matal guys (maybe breakers too but not much cash there) and whoever offers the best per ton drive it there
you will lose Ł1-3 per tyre!! if they are good take them home and ebay/gumtree them
get someone out of teh paper to do it and you will then be giving them a cut so best to do it yourself
and take the v5 too makes things easier

Well you must contact those who are in the business of scrap or junk car removal. They can easily scrap your car.

It is a very simple process, go on line to a reputable car recycling place , they usually have it set up so you can put your reg details in and it will give you a price for your car. You will get a small amount extra if you drop it off at their premises so they don't have to pick it up. If you are happy with what they offer you accept it and then when you drop it off take the reg papers with you and some other form of I.D and job done. Most places will not give you cash for it these days but they will pay you quickly by cheque or directly into your Bank. Hope this helps.
