No chance, at least not down here!
Estates and similar big stuff struggles to get 50 quid. I think the scrap boom is over.

crazy shit!
I'd be off buying them up for 50 quid a piece from the back of the local rag - then phoning Mr scrapman right away!
£250 is what I usually pay for my daily hack around.
