Default Help in Nice please!

Hi
I am looking to dispose of a car (Brit reg) in Nice area (scrap it)
Just contacted one breaker who wants 300 euro to do it....
Any suggestions?
Anyone want to take it for free and weigh it in...?
Cheers

Cant help with the Nice area but welcome to the Forum, Try another Scrap Yard as 300 Euros seems a bit steep.

I took my old car to our local car body shop. The boss gave me a certificate of destruction and disposed of it for me for nothing.

Yup The fine is automatic now if you don't notify them.

Thanks for your advice. I forgot to mention that we had already "SORNd" it, so does that mean I have nothing to do? (I hope so) You're so good you guys.
