About Somerset

The landscape of the county is largely rural, with rolling hills, expanses of flat land and acres of enviable countryside. Outside of the towns, public transport is limited so rural dwellers rely on their cars. Car maintenance will be a high priority because being without a car will be extremely inconvenient. 

Somerset has a strong road network, including main arterial routes coming from the M5 motorway, A303, A37, A38 and A39, giving relatively strong access to much of the county - although many areas can only be accessed via narrow lanes. This infrastructure assists the swift delivery of car parts around the county. Somerset is sometimes regarded as a pitstop on long-distance holiday journey’s travelling through to Devon and Cornwall. This level of through-traffic can increase the likelihood of accidents in the county. The crossroads where Pyles Thorne meets Ford Street in Wellington is notoriously troublesome, as is the Piper’s Inn junction. More accidents, means a greater demand for car parts. 

Visit the prestigious Haynes International Motor Museum if you’re in the area for the UK’s largest exhibition of cars from around the world, or if you’re mad about Minis then the West Country Mini Scene is where you need to be.

Why buy used van and car parts?

Cars are expensive. They’re expensive to buy, maintain and run, so when things go wrong it can be a shock to the system - and a shock to your bank balance. Fortunately there are options that mean you don’t have to fork out on new parts and costly garages, or even worse - an entirely new car. Scrap yards are the solution. Buying used car parts can often be far cheaper, and thanks to breakers having parts in stock all year round you can usually be back on the road in no time. 

As well as their value for money, breakers yards are also well known for having tons of parts in stock, so there is something for every car - whether you have a mid-range Fiesta or a vintage Mk1 Golf GTI. Not sure what part you need? Have a chat with one of the knowledgeable breakers, they’re always willing to help out.
