try silverlake breakers/salvage near southampton - thats where i got my 2002 engine. they had 3 others in at the time (that was a few years ago mind).

Also Douglas valley breakers are quite likely to have something as they only seem to deal in Hi-po cars.

might also be worth checking out salvage auctions if you defo want a complete car..lots are trade only but some are not...google salvage auctions for you nearest

You'll probably find it impossible to buy a complete badly damaged car, unless it's not had an insurance claim made. It's illegal to see them to anybody without the right type of scrap license. The worst damaged cars are cat A or cat B write offs, and it's these which you can't buy without a license. The only way you are likely to get one is if you know a breaker well enough for him to effectively loan the scrap to you while you strip it down. I believe he'd be in a lot of trouble if he couldn't account for the body shell of a cat A or B write off.
You can but those which are Cat C or D, but they will be much less badly damaged. See http://www.motorsalvage.com/abicodes.lasso for more info on write off caregories. _________________ Regards,
