Tyne and Wear Breakers Yards & Scrap Yards

About Tyne and Wear 

Tyne and Wear is a county on the North East coast of England and is known for being home to the cities of Newcastle-upon-Tyne and Sunderland. Although traditionally a shipbuilding city, Sunderland is now home to the Nissan car factory, which opened in 1986 and helped improve the city's declining economic situation, now employing around 6,000 people. The cars produced in the UK Nissan factory include the popular Nissan Micra, Qashqai, and, more recently, the Nissan Leaf. 

According to the 2011 Census, there were over 436,000 cars or vans owned by households in the metropolitan county of Tyne and Wear. With many cars on the road, the demand for car parts to keep these vehicles in good working condition is high. Main roads in the area include the A194(M), the A1, A69, and A19, which aid connections with the rest of the country and ensure the swift delivery of car parts. 

In Tyne and Wear, there is a Traffic and Accident Data Unit (TADU) which plays a key role in supporting the transport solutions and economic development across the county. TADU manages data from road traffic accidents and traffic flow in Tyne and Wear, sourced from a network of automatic traffic count sites, databases from the fire and rescue services, the police, and local councils. According to TADU, there were a total of 2,356 collisions in the Tyne and Wear area in 2013. Accidents increase the demand for car parts to enable accident repairs. 

If classic cars are your passion, the Sunderland & District Classic Vehicle Society hosts a number of events throughout the year, or if American cars rock your world, the Fins & Chrome show could be perfect for you.

Why buy used van and car parts?

With many financial worries in modern life, fixing your car shouldn’t be one of them. With cars being a vital part of our day-to-day lives, it can be extremely inconvenient if they break down. Therefore, getting your vehicle back on the road as soon as possible at a lower cost is crucial. Purchasing used car parts can help you save money and get back on the road, allowing you to get on with your everyday life. 

As well as saving you from making a dent in your bank account, scrap yards are full of hidden treasures and bargains. Many rare and discontinued car parts can be found in breaker yards, allowing you to repair your old faithful car rather than splashing out on a newer model. If you have any questions about which part you need or what part is best for you, the expert staff at scrap yards will be able to help, so don’t be afraid to ask - they will be able to send you in the right direction.
