Anyone scrapped a UK car in Spain ?

Anyone scrapped a UK car in Spain ?

Postby avoncliffe » Fri May 24, 2019 5:38 pm

Hi

Looking for some advise / guidance here

I have an old UK plated car out in Quesada, that the MOT has run out on. Currently it is registered with DVLA as SORN (off the road)

I think it will cost more than the car is worth to transfer to Spanish plates and all that stuff as it's a 2008 model

So my question is - anyone know of a car breakers locally (English speaking ideally) that would scrap it for me.
And what about the paperwork?

TIA
Geoff

As you can’t legally drive it in Spain, you’ll need to have it collected on a tow truck.

A neighbour of ours did and I think this is the number as I kept his card, but not sure if its the correct card or not but worth a call. He was given a few hundred and this guy did all the correct paperwork that was required and took the car away.

Barry 678 818 147 or 676 330 169

Hope it works and it's the correct person for what you want

When it left the UK it was not SORN'd just that orginal idea was to transfer to Spanish plates but that will cost more than it's value ((

Then
you must have declared that it was still in UK as you can not SORN a car unless it is in UK
