What Scrapped marker means for you
For a buyer, a scrapped marker means the car has been declared scrapped and should not be on sale or on the road. It means the same as insurers' write-off categories A and B, which never return to the road. Walk away from any sale showing it.
Before you pay, run a Full Check at £9.99, which covers scrapped status along with write-off, finance, stolen and VIN checks. Match the VIN on the windscreen, door pillar and V5C, and check the V5C name and address against the seller's ID.
