Scrap yard costs.

(1/3) > >>

muddyjames:
I need mainly a new exhaust for my rover 620. I desperatly need the front pipe section but it is so rusted onto the manifold it needs drilling out, so a new manifold would be handy too. Oh and the rear and middle section where they join are on thier way out too.

I am thinking about buying a rover 620 off ebay for £50 that is advertised for spares and strip the bits i need off (as a new front wing would be lovely too as mine is a bit rusty) and then taking it to the scrap yard.

I have been quoted £300 for a new exhaust. Annoying as I just spent £600 on the breaks for the mot and they supposidly "welded" the middle section up, but not much evisence of new welding going on under there!

Just looking at my options really!

suzota:
i wanted some vit coils from a scrappy
was quoted £35 a corner plus vat.

sod that, new ones dont cost that much

muddyjames:
no, no, noooooo

I am not intending on buying from a scrapy.

I am thinking of buying a spares or repair car off ebay, strip the car for bits i need then take it to the scrappy

MudRat:
james, do it and then offer the car back on ebay as spares/repair, u will prob get ur money back, if not cars at a scrappy will give you roughly £50 cash.

muddyjames:
give ME £50 ;D Liking the sound of that.

So if I buy a rover for £50 off ebay, take the bits I want off, then take to a scrappy it in theory should cost me nothing. :D

Sounds good to me!
