Reasons why you might want to use a scrap my classic car service

There are a few reasons why you may want to scrap a classic car. Often a classic car will take too much money to keep running.

Obviously as a car gets older it requires more repairs. With older classic cars things like spare parts become harder to get and will be dear to buy. Components of the cars will break and the chassis to can rust.

All these things add to the cost of running a classic car. Whereas with a more newer modern car as an owner of a classic car you have to expect that you will be paying more out on repairs keeping it roadworthy.

Many classic cars are not environmentally friendly, whether they have a diesel or a petrol engine a classic cars fuel efficiency will be nowhere near what a more modern car is.

Some classic cars are truly valued cars and very good examples can fetch a good price when selling. However there are many classic cars that are seen as not so fuel efficient, rust boxes or just in a state of repair that will just cost too much to get to a good drivable condition. These type of classic cars are referred to as a 'project car'.

A classic car project car is a car that will need a lot of time invested in it to get it to a drivable condition yet alone a good condition.

These type of cars are perfect for our scrap my classic car service.

Examples of scrap my classic cars and scrap my project cars

Land Rover Defender

The Land Rover Defender (initially introduced as the Land Rover 110 / One Ten, and in 1984 joined by the Land Rover 90 / Ninety, plus the new, extra-length Land Rover 127 in 1985) is a series of British off-road cars and pick-up trucks. These are truly classic off road vehicles that have lasted well over the years. Many get updated with add components and although they give a rough road ride are used as every day driver cars.

Triumph Dolomite

The Triumph Dolomite is a car that was produced by Triumph Motor Company from 1934 to 1940. It first appeared in 1934 as a sports car and the name was also used from 1937 on a series of sporting saloons and open cars until 1939 when the company went into receivership.

The Triumph Dolomite sprint small saloon car was produced by the Triumph Motor Company division of the British Leyland Corporation in Canley, Coventry between October 1972 and August 1980.

Unfortunately the Triumph Dolomite did suffer unreliability issues so are quite a rare sight to see this classic car on British roads today.

Jaguar XJ

The Jaguar XJ is a series of full-size luxury cars produced by British manufacturer Jaguar Cars (becoming Jaguar Land Rover in 2013) from 1968 to 2019. From its inception The Jaguar XJ has always looked a luxury car right through to the modern days of 2019. When you think classic car you may picture a Jaguar XJ.

Morris Minor

The Morris Minor is a British economy family car.Designed under the leadership of Alec Issigonis, more than 1.6 million were manufactured between 1948 and 1972 in three series: the MM (1948 to 1953), the Series II (1952 to 1956), and the 1000 series (1956 to 1971). This classic car will always be remembered for its wooden trim on the exterior of the car and its look and shape.

Ford Sierra

The Ford Sierra RS Cosworth is a high-performance version of the Ford Sierra that was built by Ford Europe from 1986 to 1992. It was the result of a Ford Motorsport project with the purpose of producing an outright winner for Group A racing in Europe. The Ford Sierra was a large family car with decent performance for its time but adding in the Cosworth engine changed the car to one that had the performance credentials of sports cars of the time.

Again you do not see many of these classic cars around, the Cosworth version would still fetch a very good price indeed if in pristine condition.

Morris Mini or Mini Minor

The Mini is a two-door compact city car that was produced by the British Motor Corporation (BMC) and its successors from 1959 until 2000. The original Mini is considered an icon of 1960s British popular culture.

Austin Metro (Mini Metro) (MG Metro)

The Metro is a supermini car, later a city car that was produced by British Leyland (BL) an by the Rover Group from 1980 to 1998. It was launched in 1980 as the Austin Mini Metro. It was intended to complement and eventually replace the Mini, and was developed under the codename LC8.

Daimler Sovereign

Daimler Sovereign was a name applied by British manufacturer Jaguar Cars to a sequence of luxury automobiles built by it but carrying the Daimler badge between 1966 and 1983.

The Daimler Sovereigns were based on contemporary Jaguar body shells, chassis and engines in an example of badge engineering. Jaguar Cars took over The Daimler Company in 1960 and the 1966 Sovereign was the second Daimler to be based on a Jaguar model.
