What Is My Scrap Car Worth? What Decides the Price in the UAE
Two cars that look equally broken can get very different offers. Here's why.
There isn't a fixed scrap price per car. Buyers look at what the car can still be used for, whether that's resale, spare parts or metal.
What pushes the price up
- Popular models. Toyota, Nissan, Lexus and other common cars have strong demand for spare parts.
- Working parts. A good engine, gearbox or airbags add value even if the body is damaged.
- Size and weight. Bigger cars, SUVs and pickups contain more metal.
- Complete car. Catalytic converter, wheels and battery still fitted.
What brings it down
- Missing major parts
- Flood damage, which affects electrics throughout the car
- Outstanding fines or a loan that has to be cleared first
How to get the best offer
Send clear photos and be upfront about the damage. An honest description gets you a firm price that won't change when the truck arrives. Compare offers on the total you receive, not just the headline number, since some buyers deduct towing at collection.
Our pickup is free anywhere in Dubai, and the price we quote is the price you get.
