Bought my MOT failed car today
Bought my MOT failed car today. Made contact in the morning, collected the same day at a fair price. I live 97 miles from them so that's pretty impressive in itself. I said I preferred cash if possible,,,, job done. Terry seems a cracking bloke.

…scrapping my van
.I spoke to a very friendly girl Emma , after accepting an offer to scrap our van she gave a vey fair offer , she was very friendly and really helpful in organising the pickup.
Macca and his dog Dolly came to collect , a really friendly guy , who was extremely pleasant , the transaction was really smooth and from our experience I have no problem in recommending them .
Excellent service great company for Parts
Excellent service, ordered an Audi A4 2004 car part, after countless calls to other companies and waitibg two weeks. My part was delivered today and I am now back on the road, saving me hundreds. Great customer care on the phone, chat. Very cheap part 10* and great condition. I will use again and reccomend.

Scammers. Scrapped a coupe to them with multiple issues that would outweigh the cost to fix big time . They have it listed on Facebook on
A blag account for more than I paid for it with no issues listed . Car needs taking off the road
told me to buy a whole engine for a rocker cover
went in a few days ago for an injector. didnt have any issues. went in today to get a rocker cover and they told me i have to buy the whole engine just so i can have a rocker cover. thats a joke. why sell the injector but not a small peice of plastic on top of the engine. like hell im going to buy an engine for a cover i can get on ebay for £21. are you *ucking mental. worst breakers ever.
