Nex just been and picked up all his booty so im off to find some more.....top bloke nex.
thanks mate, pleasure to meet you. i went to that scrappy in peterborough, OMG!!! like i kid in a candy store
got a late k11 horizontal wiper blade, and apiller trim with tweeters in them
i will have a stupidly long list for you
soo much i want! there was a micra tempest, will all black interior trim didn't even know that existed! and a facelift k11 with a tacho.anyway great to meet you and i am sure i will be back for more stuff
but if you see any horizontal wiper motors, (i saw 3) then get them. i would have but ran out of time and money lol
lol that depends, what would you be offering?

um sorry mate, i cant find any pics. but they are off the latest k11
http://www.autoweb.co.uk/dealer_sites/car_pix/DSC00516_1_trad.jpg
the ones with grey bits at the bottom of the bumpers. they have smooth wiper arms like the ones you find on puntos. and they sill horizontal, rather than up the side of the rear windscreen.
its these lateset micras that i am really interested in cos i have not seen them in the scrappy ever. they have the coilpack engines and have really nice black trim.
there was a purple/blue one in the area where they cut the cars up and it had so much black trim that i wanted, and also this rear wiper motor, but i couldn't get it off cos the wiper blade was snapped and there wasnt enough left to get a decent grip on to remove it.
anyway i was amazed at what prices they gave me too, bargins
so thanks again for all this. i will probably do the other scrap yard tomorrow, before i head home cos there may be some more hidden treasures lol

thought you had gone home as your on here. will have a look for the arms and motors you asked for, i think i know of one at bruntons if its still there, im sure it is will check onm monday... what was the prices like for stuff at peterlee salvage or didnt you go there, how much did they charge you for the stuff you got just so i can compare it with what i get at my mates yard..
yea i am in a hotel at the mo. the peterlee one was great. had a TVR in there and everything! never seen anything like it. they wanted £10 for A piller trim and a wiper blade. not bad seeing as nissan wanted £30 for just the wiper blade.

the tvr was just as you went into yard,,did you look under the hood at the engine and the rear or lack of it, i was all over it like a rash and was looking to see what it needed to be put back on the roads. Hotel you mad you could have crashed here im sure i could have found a couple of z beds. + free food drink wifi never mind.......think i would have paid around a fiver for those items at my mates yard. might have a look back there with brooney see what there is in the breakers section, did you have time to check the complete cars out primeras and almeras there is one coming here for dismantling as soon as funds allow.....
lol me too, oooooooh that straight 6
thanks loads for the offer mate, but we wanted to get breakfast in windermere, so we are in a hotel there.did see some nice complete cars, but nothing too special. i will go back to the other one cos i am soo tempted by what you have to offer up north

such high demands for these items makes one think what all the fuss is about, maybe because they are made up here that they are in abundance and not sort after as much as down south + I think the weather plays a major part here to ie cars rot a lot faster given the area we live in thus making more cars for the scrap yard........so the items sort after are late type k11 clocks piller covers with tweeters in them plus the sr bumpers..........
na mate, i had one hour to get everything and no tools
nex_is (at) hotmail.co.uk
true, i was looking as i was driving around, for all the rusty cars, but they are all new.
