Re: I hate seeing this....
that looks like a scrap yard dont think much of his red wheel lol, a lot of people just scrap their cars when they get the price from the garage to get it through the mot and not many garages will save them ether. The guy at the end of the road buys mot failure fixes them up and sells them on not bad money as he gets the cars for £50/£80

Re: I hate seeing this....
I've saved mine from the crusher, found it as spares/repair on ebay as mot fail, took 80 quid to get it back on the road.
The scrappage scheme didn't help much either.

Re: I hate seeing this....
I scrapped my last as it was too much heartache for me, and tbh it wasnt as clean as i thouight it was until further inspection. I got mine now with BIG miles on it, but immaculate underbody etc, and an amazing colour to me is very rare... I dont know many people with spectral blue. But anyhoo, im glad you save yours and kept it going. Yours is gettin quite rare now too eh...

Re: I hate seeing this....
I agree its a shame to see a half decent one just scrapped, there does come a time when there is no option but a lot of these Cally's do look like they just need some TLC, I am sure a lot of the members on here would be able to get them back to good examples.
