I'm sure I've seen in local rags eg Metro " cash paid for your scrappers"
i suppose i could be wrong though.(although that never normally happens

Ah, I see.

Oh well.. You could always weld the doors up and make a boat out of them a la Top Gear. Might be quite a laugh watching Mckeann floating out to sea in a beautiful pea green Seat.

Bernard Hunter near me (between Lasswade/Gilmerton junctions off the bypass) in Edinburgh pay you for scrap cars you bring to them. You go over a weighbridge and they pay you per ton and subtract £1.50/tyre.

I have a guy that will collect for free in the Edinburgh area, I'm sure he offers to pay for the wrecks in his ad but that usually requires a years road tax to be on the screen
Best bet is as Simon says and deliver it to a scrappy yourself

Does the Beemer actually run? T&T? E-bay it. Some tit will buy it. Failing that leave the keys in it near MMC and the locals will dispose of it in an environmentally unfriendly way

As long as the prize included a new caravan and "dags" you'd be fine
