How best to scrap my Zafira?

How best to scrap my Zafira?

Hi. I have a Vauxhall Zafira 2001 that broke down due to the timing belt going whilst I was driving. I was wondering what the next step with it is. We cannot afford the costs involved in getting it back on the road. I wondered how I go about either selling it for parts or can I only get it scrapped and if so how do I go about this safely? Thank you in advance for your advice.

Our answer:

Hi Sarah,

If you want to get it scrapped then the best bet is to track down your local breaker's yard and see what they'll offer you. Don't try and strip it yourself as you need to be careful when recycling oils, fluids etc.
