Do Certain Top Car Brands Worth More In Scrap?

Generally, expensive cars and their run will have an increased value in their scrap price. However, this isn’t always the case. Many other factors impact the vehicle’s scrap value, such as the car’s age, model, weight, and parts. For example, if you sell a scrap Ford from 2004, it’ll surely be worth less than a Ford from 2019.
