I've got 7 cars and a number of motorbikes, none of which are worth any money (well maybe my mini, cos that has a Halda in it which is worth a grand on its own) - but I get so much grief from HID I think if I dared attempt to store any more I'd be like my second Scorp:
Dead!

I think I have more of the r reg one than is left in the yard , Drews of st Day. Some prat broke the offside headlight before I could remove it. Had the sunroof motor today . I was going to buy the complete car but had nowhere to put it, only needed a front bumper and n/s headlight to go back on the road. Ps its a facelift.

Never been in any scrapyards for a while but it seems to be a very rare occurrence to meet one on the roads now.
i used to see 2 or 3 everytime I drove down South but now i never see any.

I'm not surprised Stuart, you don't really need to go to a scrapyard  By the way, I still need two nice steel rims from you, not bothered what the tyres are like! Oh and a nice condition saloon boot carpet.
