About Leicester

As the county town of Leicestershire, the bustling city of Leicester is a hive of activity. Leicester is situated at the heart of the north/south divide - where the midland main line and cross country railway lines connecting Birmingham, Leicester and Cambridge and further down into London converge.

The city is well connected to the rest of the country via motorways too, with the M1, A6, A46 and M69 all easily accessible. The section of the M1 motorway near Leicester is considered to be the busiest stretch. The nearest airport is East Midlands Airport near Castle Donington, in north west Leicestershire further increasing local traffic. The more traffic, the higher the chance of accidents happening. Increased road incidents leads to a higher demand for car parts in Leicester.

The south of the city suffers the most when it comes to the most dangerous roads and junctions. The junction in Aylestone where Soar Valley Way meets Lutterworth Road is the worst in the city, with 35 people injured in just three years, while the Narborough Road/Fosse Park Avenue junction just a mile away is also particularly dangerous. Works have been done to try to improve safety, such as at the junction of Charles Street and Humberstone Gate.

Leicester Mercury Motor Show is worth a visit if you are a car enthusiast in the Leicester area. The British sports car company Noble also calls the city home.

Why buy used car parts?

The benefits of buying car parts from breaker yards are endless. With the costs of owning a car seeming to rise endlessly, from fuel and MOTs to parts and repairs, car owners are looking to save money wherever possible. This has led more and more people to explore the possibilities available when it comes to sourcing used car parts from scrap yards.

Scrap yards allow you to find exactly the part you need; whether that is new, reconditioned or second hand, having browsed around and chosen a price that suits your budget. No more pricey garages, no more money worries when something needs mending. Fixing up your existing car with used parts is cheaper, and can often get you back on the road much faster.

If you have any doubts about how to go about the process or what parts best suit your needs then knowledgeable salvage yard workers are often the right people to ask. They have tons of experience in their field, and can often offer invaluable advice to potential buyers.
