What non-running cars worth these days if anything?

Diesel Mondeo Estate with 6 months MOT, engine presumably FUBAR.

Very much subject to regional variations and whether it’s being sold as ‘scrap’ or as a running car with resale potential. Shop around your local area, have a look online…

I used https://www.removemycar.co.uk for a non-running Alfa JTD a few years back, and the only complaint I had was that the successful bidder tried to knock off 25% of the agreed price when they came to pick it up.

Generally around the £3-400 mark for a non runner in South Wales, a few hundred more for a runner with decent parts. Can be very model specific though. It's the reason even the ropiest of cars sell for £500+ if they have a current MOT. The row of bangers for sale on Colchester Avenue in Cardiff rarely had anything less than a grand on it now and they are constantly turning over.

That's just alphabetical. Probably harder to get a gun licence than a driving licence (think, learner)
