    Different prices in most weigh in yards, unless your taking a lot don't expect much for steel. Alloy & stainless you will get a bit more for.

    Bloke in the local industrial estate weighed in an old Merc estate with a fair bit of scrap in the boot. Got it was either £360 or £380 for it. That was last Christmas though.

    Be nice to think it's all getting back to normal again. Fuel should be coming down again soon as well

    With the price of crude right now, once the lag in the system clears, it should be back to sub £1 a litre again.

    I bet it doesn't though

    Feckin country.

    Never forget when I started driving, it was 30p a litre.

    I remember coming home off deployment, and it had went up to 44p a litre while I was away, and thinking I was getting robbed.

    Wasn't that long ago. Bloody Government.

    I just paid £1.19 a litre. Esso, but Tesco were almost the same. Was cheaper to fill up here than drive the 1 mile and back to fill up at Tesco.

    I rang another very big very organised London wide scrappy, they collect and said £50 for the Astra.

    30p! cant remember them days, when i started driving it was around 70p a litre.

    speaking of other silly costs, was just speaking to a local engine builder and he tells me that they'll be taxing the mitsy evo/scooby over £400 a yr
