This lot will always be interested.... if you are really interested in saving it so it doesn't go to scrap it'd probably be best to drop the price by about a k.

Any preserved railways in the vicinity? Seen similar around engine sheds. Ideal for lifting the odd V12 out of something tasty?

Would this really be worth £3000 in scrap value?

yeah, if it weighs about 12 tonnes it probably is £3k in scrap

Wont it be classed as "oversize" though? It will get a lower price scrap wise if it is as they will have to chop it up to get it in the baler/shears.

Depending on type the engine could be worth a grand or so if it's a goodun
