Ok I know this is kinda random but do anyone know where the hell you go to find damaged cars? I'm trying to price up some donors for a project I have in mind but no where I look online I can find it and I don't know where to even start looking. I've been googling but i just can't find anywhere that seems to sell much or cheap. I figured these cars would be cheap damaged but they only seem to be about £500 less than fully working ones so I think I must be looking in the wrong place (either that or damaged cars are worth a lot)

Anyway and advice would be nice. I'm mostly just looking to price up this possible project right now, it's won't be getting started for around a year. Thanks for the help

Shouldn't be too difficult to find somewhere near you - just google 'salvage'

Have you tried copart?

Judging by last nights news I'd say the Paris suburbs would be a good starting point.

Having a quick scout at your location you could try North East Motorsalvage in Peterlee or Norman Marhsall's in Newcastle. Other good yards are Hills towards Wigan and Doncaster Motorspares in can you guess.....Doncaster.

If you fancy having a look on the net try Bluecycle, Copart, HBC, www.salvagemarket.co.uk to name a few.
