Had the pleasure of spending a day in a scrapyard on Saturday, PRS near Normandy in Surrey. I know there's been a lot of scrapyard threads but I just had to share my finds, I've been to the yard on and off for seven years now and bought a few interesting bits from them too, they get random stuff turn up as they've got a reputation for being into it.
Speaking to Rob and Steve the owners I realised how hard it is to run a yard like this these days. Amongst other wibblepoo rulings, every vehicle has to be dated when it's brought in, then the remains no matter what the condition have to be destroyed one year later. It's just a crime in my eyes, what about keeping a shell for the future? It's a scary thought.
Anyway, here's some of the stuff, if you're in the area drop by - they're top blokes ;D
Really clean 518i, poverty spec model. Just a waste...
Mmmmmmm, TR7.
45K Metro, clean, straight. Free AX shaped roof rack, this sums it up really, but as we all decided, no matter how clean none of us would have bought it.
This was bought as a whole car on Saturday and will be saved, I'm not a Nova fan, but how clean is this? It's 16yrs old or summat...
And this is for sale, fairly clean, paints a little crazed, and it's been sat for a while... Anyone? No idea how much, but it won't be ridiculous.
