    Breakers prices will vary due to demand for re-usable parts from that particular model, so you'd need to give them a call.
    If it's a 'common as sh1t' model you may not be offered much.
    Recyclers on the other hand only offer the going rate for mixed scrap metal after crushing.
    I've heard that scrap prices have gone up lately, (from rock bottom) so again call down to the Deepwater Quay or the one opposite the NCT centre.

    scrap metal and cars have been bad for ages....people were getting more money for just the battery and a few certain parts...you could advertise on a site as a good for individual parts'...so persons buy cars as old as there's for just that...If you want to get rid of it, Id not be holding out for anything...just that it would be gone. good luck
