Mazda has a strong reputation in the motoring industry thanks to its stereotypical great reliability as is often found in vehicles from the Far East. However, just because Mazdas may have that enduring strength found in many a Japanese car, they are not immune to breakages and mechanical faults. If your Mazda is nearing the end and repairing just isn’t an option any more, give BMS Salvage a call on 023 8000 8800 and get your Mazda valued now!

Why Are Mazdas Sold As Salvage?

Like any vehicle, a Mazda may be sold as salvage for a wide number of reasons. Some of the more common reasons, though, includes irreparable damage from an accident, or simply the car reaching the end of its usable life.

Mazdas may be a good safe bet for car owners, with their legendary reliability and build quality, but there have been a few instances over the years where major issues have cropped up. Just say the word “rust” to any Mk1 MX-5 owner and you’ll likely be greeted with a shudder, while the rotary engine found in the RX8 has been known to be a problem point for many. Likewise, catalytic converters on some RX8s have also been prone to failure. The 323 also had its fair share of issues, including ABS sensor failure and oil sump corrosion both relatively common problems.

A car that would be considered a write off by your insurance company might fetch more as salvage if you were to retain it and sell it yourself. Of course, if it’s been involved in a particularly serious smash, it’s unlikely that there will be much left to salvage, so the scrap route might be more appropriate. If your motor has only suffered isolated damage however, components from other areas should still be in working order and able to be stripped out and reused in other cars. If it’s deemed safe to do this, you could end up with a better price for your car than you anticipated.

Your Mazda could also have suffered a major mechanical fault or MOT failure which will leave you with a huge bill to pay. In this instance, many drivers simply sell their car as salvage as they can’t afford the repairs and it would be almost impossible to find a serious buyer for it privately.

On the other hand, you might have a car that’s in decent condition that you just don’t need anymore. If you fall into this category of drivers but don’t want the hassle of trying to sell the car privately, you could have it shifted and money in your account within just a few days by getting in touch with BMS Salvage.

Frequently asked Questions

How is salvaging different to scrapping?

Salvaging is the process in which someone buys car ‘as is’ as its value is likely higher than the scrap price. Whereas scrap prices are based on weight, your Mazda could be salvaged if the car as a whole or parts of the car are in high demand from buying agents throughout the UK. Selling your car for salvage is nearly always guaranteed to get you more money for your end of life vehicle.

How much is my Mazda worth?

The value of a salvage Mazda can be impacted by a number of factors. The age, mileage and general condition of the vehicle will have an impact on how much you’ll make from your car when it’s time to sell, with cars that contain more reusable parts typically worth more than a similar model that’s got less components left in it to be transplanted to other vehicles.

How quickly can my Mazda be collected?

We can collect your Mazda as quickly as 24 hours after completing your booking with us. However it’s more likely that the collection would happen 48 to 72 hours after booking. We’ll have a professional car collection agent inspect and safely pick up your car from its location.

How does payment work?

Payment is released in full on the day your Mazda is collected. This usually happens within a few hours of collection but could be processed at the end of the working day. When your vehicle is collected the collecting agent will inspect the vehicle to ensure it is as described. So long as the vehicle matches our records then payment is made via BACS and with you the same day.

Which Mazda cars have you salvaged?

We’ve seen just about every Mazda model from the past 30 years including the Mazda 2, 3, 6, CX-5, MX-5, RX8 and Bongo. The most common Mazda models we salvage are the MX-5 I, 6 D Sport Nav, 6 D SE-I Nav. The average year of original registration was 2009, giving Mazdas an average 14 year lifecycle.
