Scrapyard watch
Hi all just come across a Wedgwood blue 75 at GW Bridges yard Crawley Sussex. It's a 1.8 club on a Y plate, not sure if it's an SE. It must be new in as barely touched. Panel damage to drivers side wing and doors other than that it's intact.
Might be an idea to have a sticky thread on scrappies...... Ahem, recycling centres that can be updated as cars are found. What do you lot think? Jay

This car must be a recent arrival, as I was at Bridges just a few days ago for some Peugeot bits & there were no Rover 75s around. There had been several, inc. some well-specified cars (plus some MG ZTs) until quite recently, I'd posted about them a few months back. There's a few Rover 45s too. Cars don't seem to hang around for long in the main yard at Bridges...

Forecast for tomorrow is good so I may have a trawl round the scrapyards in Colchester to see what - if anything - is available for our cars and add anything of note to this thread.
