Selling off one (or bits :o) of your XM collection, or perhaps searching for those elusive headlight washer covers? This is the place to do it.

Green hatch breaking

Those green panels would really really make my v6 sei look sooooo well and pretty again.. Why do they have to be soooo far away...

It looks too tidy to break even thought it is a TCT, must have autobox problems?

C Trent used to be one of my regular local scrap yards (Soton & Parkstone) until they became closed yards a couple of years ago.
Not used them since they stopped you going near the cars or taking your own bits off.

According to FCF it seems that the Poole yard now allows entry to recover bits but makes a charge (unspecified) for that entry.
No idea about the Soton one as I have never been back to either yard since the closed entry.
Maybe it was such a bad business move that they had second thoughts.
Either way they lost my regular visits to both yards.
