SCRAP YOUR CAR/VEHICLE FOR FREE environmentally friendly

If your car has some MOT and tax left to run - even if its only a couple of months why not stick it up on here for free.
I did that in the old fashioned manner a few years back with a mk3 escort - it had about 3 months MOT and a month or so tax left on it - stuck an advert in the window saying free to a good home and someone come along for it as a first car for their kid.
Practical classics magazine used to have - free classics advertised, basically come and take it away and do it up, or if its to far gone spares it.
Some people would rather scrap a Mk1 Zodiac than let someone have it who wants to do it up. Ive heard of Mk2 Jags going to be scrapped as people CBA.
A crying shame when rather than crushed and melted they could have been back on the road.
Someone out there might replace that power steering pump or CV joint that your scrapping the car for and if your not bothered about the small scrap fee then why not give it away to them.
Let the DVLA or whoever know its gone and your fine.0
