CarTakeBack Scrap Car Price Update August 2020

CarTakeBack provides the latest car price update for August 2020 showing stability in scrap car prices

  

This month CarTakeBack has reported a stability in the prices being paid for scrap cars, with less than a 1% increase compared to last month, and to August 2019. In a normal year, August would be a time for people to take holidays abroad and we’d usually see scrap car prices dip slightly. To see them maintain is great news, especially in the current climate. The August prices are the highest seen this year, and there are signs that they could maintain into September. 

Scrap prices offered for cars are dependent on many factors, including the global demand for scrap metal, as well as the make, model, age, weight, condition, location of the customer – these all impact the final value of vehicles.
