BMW Car Parts

Behold. 😍 Just look at her.. the personification of grace, beauty and craftsmanship bestowed on four wheels.

Here kitty kitty 😻

Is it any wonder so many of us feel passion and adoration for automobiles when breath takers like Jaguar's E-Type rolled off the production line. The model pictured here is a 1961 3.8L stunner. One of the first off the line.

Who wouldn't want to be whizzing around on a sunny day driving this absolute beauty? Top down, not a care in the world. 

At the time of blogging, there are 5,732 E-Types in the UK with MOTs. 

Weigh that up against 30,843,909 cars and vehicles currently with valid MOTs and Jag E-types count for 0.0186% of the lion's share.

Next spring the E-type turns 60 years old. And by goodness she's still got it.

It's a joy to see motorists keeping their classic cars on the road, and that goes for any make or model - not just the ultra fancy ones.

From the Porsche 911, to Land Rover to VW Beetle, to the majestic Mercedes 300SL Gullwing to the Ferrari 250 GTO and the superior Ashton Martin DB5; FYI there are only 343 currently MOTed in the UK. 

But get this, there are only 33 Ferrari 250 GTOs left... in the entire world! 

The classic cars that keep on running are because of their diligent owners who cherish and look after them and when needed boost them with reclaimed car parts.

That's what's so wonderful about used car parts depots and breakers yards like ours, they can help keep classics like these and modern day classics going.

We've had some belters come into our scrap yard in Bolton, including a Rolls Royce Silver Shadow, we have had someone sell a Lotus Elite to us, some sell a Morris Minor (nothing finer), we've had an MGB GT, we had someone sell a Triumph stag MK1, we buy Escort Sierras for best price and we pay top price for selling an old Mini Cooper.

What's bugging motorists..

What a beautiful scorching bank hol weekend we've just had.

Temperatures soared, the sun was out and skies were blue. 

Warmer weather brings out the best in folk, and it also brings out a few more visitors - and we're not talking social distancing rebels - we mean green flies or aphids as they're also known. 

And while this is a normal part of nature this time of year it can mean the extra bug splat on your vehicle when you drive and even when it's parked up.

Bugs like green flies tend to leave a very sticky residue on your paintwork which can be a struggle to remove without damaging paintwork at times.

But there are quite a few ways to prevent the build up of sticky bug sap in the first place. 

After washing your car, apply a wax, this waxy sheen will make it harder for bugs to stick around.

If you do find an onslaught of bug residue, clean your car with a specialised bug spray remover for vehicle. Don't be tempted to use regular household products like washing-up liquid.

There are plenty of bug and tar removers for vehicles which will safely remove any ground in dirts and splats without damaging car paintwork. 

As a popular scrapyard in Bolton and also serving the nation, we often hear of cleaning mistakes motorists make when trying to scrub out green fly sap, for example or bird poop.

Some have used abrasive scourers and sponges and inadvertently scratched their cars. In the long run that costs them dearly as they require resprays.

Others, who may have older cars with exteriors they are not that bothered about any more just let the bugs have a field day and the sap builds up becoming harder to remove.

We've had cars brought into our yard where you literally cannot see through the windscreen because they're that thick in bug splat and sap. T

What sap?! Sticky residue from greenflies 

his happens when they've been parked up, under trees for ages. Cars that don't perhaps run anymore. That's usually when car owners are saying, "I want to scrap my car Bolton way", or "I want to scrap my car in Manchester, "I want to scrap my car Bury way." Or anywhere else for that matter.  

Then they give us a call and we do the rest. 

We are a car scrap yard Bolton based, but with scrap car collection services up and down the country. 

You may have a scrap car Stockport way, or you want to ‘scrap my car Leigh way’, that’s never an issue for our certified collection agents who will collect a scrap vehicle for best price.

It’s not just cars either, we buy scrap vans too. 

Say you want to know the scrap value for a Ford transit van, or you have thought, 'where would I ‘scrap my Audi', no matter what condition; rough paintwork, bug stained paintwork, running or not, we will get you best price for a scrap car and best price for a scrap van.

It's van-derful. Scrap a van with us
