Have you tried going to a scrap yard? They are always crushing cars to get them out of the way! They might give you one of the useless ones if you ask nicely!! There are two big scrapyards in Enfield and Kilcock as far as I know.

They sell the steel after crushing - they'll not give them away for free.

Ask over on the Motors forum (http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=47), but don't expect to get a Mini or Beetle as they retain a lot more value due to their age / perceived status. 1990s Punto or Clio is what you'd probably be able to get someone to let you take away for free.
