Yesterday while in Wrexham I thought I'd check a breakers yard to see if they had a cav, although they didn't I was told a about a breakers that might have one I went there to find that the yard was filled with mostly old Jaguars (70s, 80s) with loads of probably rare bits on them and 2 Cav hatches, a blue GLS with a grey interior and a red Ls with a fully black interior in what seemed to be near mint condition, I think they were both 1.8's, so a great place to go for parts before all the cars get crushed in a couple of months,

There is also what is a near rust free not scrapped (sorn) genuine 23k miles 1.6 gls vauxhall Belmont on a d reg that they only want £250 for, i was guaranteed it was running when parked up a few years ago, inner wings are solid and interiors all there although is a dent in the passenger side wing and needs a fuel tank. The only reason I left it there was because I can't afford to buy it or store it and believe me it was hard to walk away. There is also a container full of lights there including a few rear lights for nova's. Also grills and lights for classic cars, let other people know as it would be a massive shame for a full yard of rare parts to all be crushed.

Yeah that sounds like the one, you can get to it by coming from Chester way to queensferry it's about less than a mile before you get to the roundabout by Asda and there's a sign on the fence where the entrance is. Jacksons do let you nosy about just tell them what cars your looking for and they'll tell you if they've got any in and let you have a look about in the yard, Jacksons details are in the yellow pages :thumb
