I thought it was time for a new design as the last one was starting to look a bit tired and I wasn’t so sure if orange was such a good look in the end! The new Auto Salvage Sites design is sleeker, better looking and the car design fits right in with what this website is all about! What do you all think??

Fraudsters posting car adverts on 247 Salvage have come up with a new way to scam money off unsuspecting bargain hunters. They list top of the range cars for ridiculously cheap prices such as this 04 Reg Audi S4 which is being advertised as damaged repaired and the fraudster is asking £2500 for when the cheapest damaged S4 I’ve ever come across was about £7500 and they are still worth about £15000 on the road.
When you enquire about the car the phone number provided doesn’t work so you have to send an email which he then replies to saying he’s abroad and you’ll need to send him a deposit. Once you send the deposit that’s your money gone and you won’t be able to complain as you gave him the money freely. That’s not to say that all cars on the 247 Salvage website are scams this Alfa Romeo GTV from ‘Minor Salvage’ and other similar companies are kosher.
There are also similar scams on the Auto Trader website where you’ll see people advertising expensive cars for ridiculously cheap prices.
Remember the saying - If it looks too good to be true then it probably is!

Evo is the only magazine in the UK dedicated to performance cars. Every issue features the latest reviews as well as vigorous tests and amazing photos. I found a trial promotion today by The Magazine Group which gives you 3 issues for only £1, now anybody who subscribes to Evo knows it normally costs £12.60 for 3 issues so you are getting a 92% disount. If you don’t want to carry on subscribing just cancel your direct debit before your trial ends and you won’t pay anymore.
You can take a look at the Evo promotion here, it’s worth having a browse as they also have a lot of other motoring subscription offers on too.
After 35 years in business Simpson Salvage have announced that they are closing down. All stock must go before the 31st March so take a look at their website and see if you can grab a bargain. None of the prices are discounted so you have to phone up and ask them for their bottom price - be warned they’re not knocking off much. We enquired about this Cat C 53 reg MG ZR pictured for sale at £1850 and the bottom price they would take was £1700. We were hoping for a lot less than that seeing as it was ‘all stock must go’ but they said whatever doesn’t sell they’ll just auction off on Bluecycle.
UPDATE: I’ve just been informed that they should be dropping their prices again on the 1st March which is tomorrow.
