Default Couple of Classics in the breakers

For the 1st time ever, and I practically lived in breakers, I've seen some Scoob's.

One Classic wagon sport, but with leather interior. Not the bucket type though.

The other was a green uk turbo saloon, possibly facelift, although I think it had the ridge in the rear bumper. It was almost completely stripped, no interior (the front bumper for this was in the wagon), not any doors that I can recall, but a boot. But I had to open the bonnet to have a look, had a td04 on it. No intercooler and no manifold.
It was one car up, so couldn't see the condition of the bonnet. Come to think of it, it didn't have 4 pots, so not a facelift.
Its also had a big slash cut backbox.

Anyway, these were in a breakers in Stock. Can't remember the exact name of the yard, but there are about 5 breakers in the same bit of land.



Temple Farm, Ship Road, Chelmsford, Essex. CM2 8XB





Might be of use to someone.

NSEC near rettendon usually have 2 or 3 in at a time breaking.

I have had a few bargains in the past, ie Prodrive stamped WRX intercooler hoses for about a tenner, think when I came to sell it, I got about £40 for it when I changed to an STi intercooler.

NSEC is in the same area, just not the Japanese spare parts one. Must be the one you mentioned, he said its only 15 mins away, but I've still never been. Their website is good, it says how long its been a car breaking for.

I didn't even pick up the name of the company.

You should be able to do a yellow pages/google search on that address, should come up with the companies down there.

It wasn't NSEC the classics were in, it was one of the breakers round the back to them.

Joey turbo
it is def a factory fitted steel sunroof, I had a look today, it's in the second yard on left, one car up, the wagon is underneath it, the saloon has been totally stripped but the sunroof is still there, the leather interior is ok but it's actually in the wagon, they want 200 for the interior! There is a 3rd one at another yard bit further down into the area, it's a sport on a L, it still has everything except front arch plastic liners and the rear bumper support bar, I had them off it today. This sport wagon is on the ground, or should I say in the ground! If you go to the end of road/pot holed mud track! You see mr temples little house in front of you turn left and then right then it's there behind some massive green gates, very small yard and very cheap! Got all my bits for 30! Like I say though the other two, one wagon in silver has nearly everything still on it and one saloon in green has been rapped of most of it's bits. Few engine parts, unfortunatley my tool box wasn't big enough to slap a couple of turbos in! Lol oh yes all 3 were classics there wasn't one bugeye there at all!

Nice. Seems a bit pricey for the leather, especially with all the crap dumped on it.
