BMS Salvage will get you the best price for your model of Peugeot regardless of its location or condition. We’ll arrange free collection and fast payment.
Peugeots made the trip across the channel many, many years ago and are now a staple of UK roads, as well as being firmly established across the other side of Europe, too. This level of popularity implies a level of trust and reliability that drivers can put in their vehicle, but as many will tell you, it’s not always the case with French motors. Wear & tear and mechanical failures can bring a premature end to your Peugeot, as can an accident that renders it an immediate write off. What happens to those cars once they can no longer be kept running? Many of them are sold as salvage, and yours can be too. Just give BMS Salvage a call on 023 8000 8800 and get your Peugeot valued now!

Why Are Peugeots Sold As Salvage?
Like every other vehicle on the market, Peugeot cars are sold as salvage for numerous reasons. The most common reasons include vehicle damage, likely suffered after an accident, and excessive wear and tear after years of use.
We see a lot of Peugeots here at BMS Salvage and with them comes a whole host of recurring problems. For example, many 107s are eventually scrapped or salvaged with rust inside their gearbox and the 307 is prone to having its brake pedal actually break! The issues don’t just stop at mechanical problems either; the 207 was plagued with electrical problems that could make your life a misery if you were at the wheel.
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 Peugeot 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
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 Peugeot 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.
The value of a salvage Peugeot 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.
We can collect your Peugeot 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.
Payment is released in full on the day your Peugeot 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.
