Very good yard, very neat and tidy, cars arranged by make so finding what you need is much easier than most yards.
Prices reasonable. Nothing older than 2000 ish.

smiths@smithsofbloxham.co.uk
Business Hours
Mon - Fri8:00 am - 5:00 pm

I was only at this yard last Saturday. They’ve got a decent selection of cars in there including several classics. They’ve got an 1100, Avenger, Allegro, A35, Landcrab, about 3 Peugeot 205s and a 405 estate.
They’ve also got two Rover 600s plus the usual more modern stuff.
Prices again very reasonable, he charged me a fiver for a decent amount of Rover trim and badges plus a Fiesta radio fascia thing.
You have to now sign in giving your reg and phone number, time of arrival and leaving but that’s easy enough.
Staff at both these yards are easy to deal with.

Albert Looms in Derby
Podders in Nottingham
Rays of Rainworth
These are the tree I jnow of and that I've used.
Rays is hilarious though,he has a tiny yard with around 15 to 20 cars in it,ring him and ask and he will always say come have a look. If he stuck his head out the shed door he'd tell you himself but he just can't be arsed.

Re: Scrapyards that let you in to remove parts yourself.
I've been using Smiths in Bloxham for 34 years and they're always good. Cheap enough and plenty of cars in there. The blue 2 door 1100 in there is one of my old ones. It was a 1300 Automatic that blew itself to bits so I dropped a manual 1100 engine and box in. FXF203H iirc. It wasn't a bad car 20 years ago.

Milton Goughs, Carlton Car Breakers and Welbourne's, all within 100 yards of each other at Carlton near Barnsley. Used Carlton last year as they had a couple of Matizs in, had to take my own ladders to get to them though.
