My first car, the Renault 10 Auto, HHT 79D, got SORN'd in 2006 and hasn't been on the road since. Someone went to the trouble of recommissioning it and now it's rumoured to be sat in a garden in Stockport. Well, there ain't many left, and I know the nob who scrapped sold it on, so if I find a suitable bolt hole, I'll be asking where it went.
My beloved 306 TD, P363 PNC, is also off the road, which means its scrapped or being driven about as an illegal minicab somewhere in Manchester.

I got this one from my mates mum. She had it from new back in '87 or something. I was starting to die so i got it for $200 took the wheels with brand new tire off some of the interior bits and anything else that would fit on my galant. We then took it out for a last trash on the way to the wreckers. Sold it for $200! lol I got this one for cheap and i know why. Got rust? I should have kept it but i really couldn't be bothered at all. i did keep the wheels for the 02. Sold it for $200. cheers

Now THAT is a car. You'd have to be Wesley Snipes or something to pull off driving it though..

Well, I haven't scrapped a car since before I got a digi cam, which is reassurring in a way as that was a goodly number of years ago now!
In fact, I've only scrapped three cars, with only one of those going straight to a yard.

Used this 2.9 4x4 for a while even though it was beyond economical repair, then it gave up all its internals for my p100, doors, dash, wiring loom, bonnet, lights, front bumper, pretty much a bare shell when it went. My gorgeous minty Efi converted XR4i swopped it for a black 2.8i capri and the first time the new owner took it out for a drive it got rear ended and written off, bent both rear quarters and the roof and floor. Technically not scrapped yet,its still sitting in the salvage yard. Despite my (undeserved) reputation amongst my mates most of my cars live on to fight another day with new owners.

I saw that at a few No-Rice meets, and then it surprised me by turning up in Didcot – saw it rapidly negotiating a roundabout nr the Power Station

Date of Liability 01 12 2005 Sold to a couple of blokes from Newbury for £150 no T&T. It needed the downpipe replacing, CV gaitors, and front brakes I think...too much £££ for me at the time - gutted, as it went like stink, way better than the black one.
