The criminal bit is the perceived value of the car, and that in the end is down to what we, as "enthusiasts" are prepared to pay. Let's be honest, our cars are worth peanuts, so a liability to the trader that brought it in, and to the scrappy, the quicker it gets melted down, the quicker he gets his money back.
That, and a quick look at a XPart price list will quickly explain why our cars can be bought so cheaply.
