Scrapyards between Chester and Scarborough - gazz292 - 12:th-Apr-2018
Looking for recommendations of friendly scrap yards with later model vauxhalls in, the type that let you wander around and pull the parts you want yourself... not because i want to nick anything, but because i need to see how things fit as i remove them.. and be able to get any extra fixings or wiring to enable me to retro fit items to my car.
I travel between Chester and Scarborough, along the M62 basically, and can call in any towns on route, and take a detour for a good place.
I only know of one scrapyard that i've been to so far... "U-Pull-it" by York, they have mostly older model vauxhalls in, absolutely no meriva B's at all (most parts i want are universal between vauxhalls tho)
I paid me quid to get in, put on a hi-viz vest and was told where the vauxhalls were located and left to it, i got a load of bits of wiring looms and plugs and sockets, and a sat nav antenna and coaxes from an astra H for 4 quid.. and they have a big trough with about 10 taps on it for washing your hands after.. with hot water!!
