    Where can I sell my car for scrap and get a decent amount of money?

It had a dead ECU which I replaced (with a used one that was programmed) and it still didn't start. I've bought two different ECU kits from the UK (ecu, ignition, key, cluster,bcm) and they didn't...

    Ford Fiesta Ecoboost 2nd Service

    Ford wants to charge me over R5k to replace my front brakes & skim my front drums. It's the cars 2nd service. I think that price is pretty ridiculous! Could I take it somewhere else without losing my warranty? I'll still use genuine parts
