About Edinburgh

As the second most populous city in Scotland, Edinburgh suffers with traffic congestion, particularly during rush hour periods. To help ease this strain there are six park and ride sites on the outskirts of the city including Sheriffhall, Ingliston and Riccarton.

The Edinburgh City Bypass opened to motorists in sections since its completion in 1990, and provides a vital connection to the rest of Scotland. From east central Scotland it connects important routes such as the M8, the A1 and the M9. Edinburgh Airport, Scotland’s busiest and biggest airport is also located close to the city centre. Known as a hub of A-roads, ‘Auld Reekie’ is incredibly well connected, allowing for the fast and easy transportation of used and new car spares from breakers throughout Scotland.

The Scottish capital does somewhat have an issue with accidents, however, with the eighth highest proportion of injuries in road accidents among Scottish local authorities. One Scottish newspaper suggested that more than 360 road accidents are reported to the police every month. The New Town area has the highest volume of accidents, with nearly six per week. With so many car accidents, it’s no surprise that there is a great demand for car parts for damaged vehicles.

With a huge range of cultural events such as the famous Edinburgh Fringe Festival, there are also many motoring events within the city limits to keep petrolheads content. Be sure to check out Evolution Edinburgh, Scottish Car Show and the Knockhill Racing Circuit.

Why buy used car parts?

Cars are expensive. We know this, you know this. Maintaining them and fixing any issues can be an incredible drain on a car owner’s bank balance, which is part of the reason that more and more people are turning to breaker yards to source parts for their car. The cost of mechanics and new car components can be extortionate, whereas buying second hand, reconditioned or even new parts from a breaker yard can prove to be an affordable alternative.

Aside from the dramatic savings in price, there are many other positive factors that arise from buying used car parts. There is often a huge range of choice available at yards, allowing you to shop around and ensure you get the best possible deal for the components that you need. Hidden gems, rare items and hard-to-come-by pieces can all be found in the depths of a breaker yard. If you are unsure about what parts best suit your vehicle, or need some advice, then the staff at breaker yards are famously helpful and are always on hand to share their wisdom to make sure you get the right part.
