Hi All, I had a phone call off my mate this morning telling me about a place that has repossesions, legally seized vehicles by customs and excise. Check it out some cheap cars, quick example Volvo 850 glt £150, Ford Escort Mk5 £95. Check out the website, I have my eye on the Sierra that is on there, apparently they get new stock every saturday. You never know, your next project or daily may be sitting in their yard. ;D www.eastcoastsalvage.co.uk/vehicles.aspxCheers, Stu.

Could definately do some up and sell on, there is a Rover 827 Sterling 2.7 V6 with Auto for £150. It's got to be worth hiring a trailer and getting down to pick a couple up and sell on.
Cheers,
Stu.

some of those cars have sat around that yard for a fair few years! don't expect them to be runners! Might need something to cut through the brambles too A mate has had a few moderns from there usually base model Peugouts with lots of holes in the roof/dash.

I never said any of them had mot, just spreading the love for cheap cars and some with Retro appeal If not for the car they could be good for donor vehicles for a project then weigh the rest in, cheap parts for anyone. Cheers, Stu.

There seems to be an amazing amount of Mk1 Mondeos, all of which appear to have intact bumpers!
Have they been there since birth?!

Been there a couple of times and always come away disapointed. Why disapointed? It would seem they are all worth taking. No?

I tell you what, I hope those prices are out of date, a 95 escort 1.6 £950, I can get a good one for £5-600 now. it seems that mondeos are cheap but everything else is way overpriced. £850 for a astra mk3 estate only like an M reg or something. No wonder cars don't move there.
