The best prices and the best way to scrap a Lotus!

Exemplary service - and great prices

Our team of scrap Lotus disposal experts are here to provide not only the best prices for your old Lotus removal but also at the high level of service we're proud of. We will provide the best Lotus scrap car quotes from our range of scrap car yards throughout the UK.

We work with breakers and specialists who prefer to recycle your Lotus car parts. Our partners who are looking specifically for owners scrapping a Lotus car know they can achieve better prices by selling used parts than scrap materials; and will often offer a much better price at your scrap Lotus valuation.

No matter who you choose for your scrap Lotus collection, our partners all conform to our high-standards when helping you dispose of your vehicle, whatever its condition, guiding you through the necessary paperwork, and providing a simple method of prompt payment.

Recycling your Lotus and supporting community initiatives

Car.co.uk use part of the funds raised from recycling your Lotus to help charities, community projects, and many good causes giving extra help to those who really need it. We assist projects involved in offender rehabilitation, helping the homeless, and providing distribution for much-needed resources to areas and communities in need. When you choose Car.co.uk to pick up your Lotus for scrap you're doing much more than helping yourself - you're giving us the opportunity to help others too.

With Lotus car prices starting at £30k and rising to over £750,000 for a 1997 Lotus Elise GT1, you'd be wise to choose one of our Lotus recycling specialists when saying goodbye to one of these beautiful machines. You probably won't see as many on the road as other manufacturers, with only 48k being driven in the UK today, but with over 28k declared SORN, there could well be a large number of project cars in need of spare parts to return them to prime condition.

What difference can scrap cars make to local communities

Our unique way of working will see your scrap vehicle turned into funding for social value projects

Although cars are our passion, it’s actually social value initiatives and community charity work that’s at the heart of what we do.

After helping you to find a great price from a scrap car yard or vehicle recycler for your Lotus, a portion of the funds that your car helps us to generate will mean we can provide financial backing for a number of important causes, including:

  • HMP Academies: Helping to reduce reoffending rates
  • Supported living services: Reducing dependency on social housing
  • Food redistribution networks: Creating meals for those experiencing poverty

While these initiatives have a direct impact on the people who use them, the benefits are often felt much more widely. The charity projects we support have been proved to ease the huge demands put on taxpayer-funded services - including the police, local healthcare, the courts, offender management services – and many more.

Directly helping charitable causes by scrapping your car

You can help us make a difference

Your car may have made its last journey on the road – but we’ll make sure it goes on to provide social value for charities and good causes around the country.

Frequently asked questions

When scrapping or recycling Lotuses, or any other car, our customers often ask questions that aren’t necessarily obvious of how the complete process works. The following are a small selection we think may help with those extra details.

No – it doesn’t have to be the registered keeper or owner, but we do need someone to be with the car. Your chosen representative has to show a form of photo ID to our collection partner, and if you’re unable to provide the V5C document, they will also need to show a utility bill addressed to them from the previous 3 months.

Simply apply for a number plate retention certificate through the DVLA. You can do this online or through the post. We ask that you complete the process and have received confirmation before the car is collected.

Yes. As long as the car has been described accurately during quotation, you will receive the exact amount quoted.

Many of the collection partners we utilise can recover a car with no wheels. Please let us know when applying for your quotes, so we can value the car correctly and ensure our partners have the correct equipment to retrieve it.

No problem. Many of our collection partners can remove cars without keys. If you can let us know at the initial quote stage, we can ensure you deal with a Lotus scrap dealer with the correct equipment.

Absolutely. We ask that the original stereo is put back in its place but if that isn’t possible just let us know when you ask for your quote so that we have all the correct information.
