Best place to scrap - Matt - 02-11-2012

A cat?

I have a gti cat and a xsi cat and a cat from a 206 need to scrap them as need some cash, but where is the best place?

A scrappie that buys cats would be your best bet lol







Ha ha just google scrap metal places in your area and ring em


RE: Best place to scrap - Matt - 02-11-2012

Haha douche. Genuinely I didn't know if there was a certain place I had to take them to get a good deal Tongue

If there not genuine you'll be lucky to get £1.50 ea for them.

To get rid of a cat put it in a bag with a brick and drop it in a river

Bhahahaha Tongue


And I'm unsure wether its genuine or not, anyway to tell?


RE: Best place to scrap - 306carter - 02-11-2012

Patent cats are usually smaller and look cheap. Genuine Pug cat will be bigger and look quality. Post up a pic.


RE: Best place to scrap - Matt - 02-11-2012

The gti one is wide and chunky. I'll get a pic inabit

a platinum recovery company will give you the best money for them!


RE: Best place to scrap - 1616six - 02-11-2012

I thought you'd be the one to be advising us where to take them Mickey!

same here . .Smile


RE: Best place to scrap - Toms306 - 02-11-2012

It depends entirely on whats in it, some aftermarket ones do still have the platinum and stuff in there........its all coded on the cat somewhere. I got £40 for my genuine cat (full of oil) off the Golf lol.


And dont wanna jack the thread but does anyone know how much scrap prices are for iron/steel atm?


RE: Best place to scrap - 306Dan - 02-11-2012

if you cant find anywhere decent to flog the cat pickeys normally travel to the best places for prices and round here give £35-£40 each cat for a 306 sized one

Only you would come up with some thing like that Dec lol


RE: Best place to scrap - Grant - 02-11-2012

Ask Dum-Dum, he may as well have shares in his local scrapyard...


RE: Best place to scrap - Chris - 02-11-2012

Matt, drop me a pm with pics of the codes, should be able to do a deal with the exhaust too if you want.

Just like a ginger. Make sure you tie the bag though otherwise they can swim away.

LOL no, my local yards dont do the best prices as some have stopped accepting cats as they were getting too many stolen ones meaning the remaining yard that did take them had no competition so dropped its prices.

Also London yards have higher running costs so pay lower prices.


RE: Best place to scrap - Poodle - 03-11-2012

A lot of places round here don't do them either Matt, just to warn you. Was a right joke hauling the cabby one round til someone would accept it, I ended up having to go to EMR group.
