This week, Ethan, Jack and Edwin try to find a scrap car to save and put back on the road before it ends up being crushed or dismantled for parts. We'll tour Silverlake Automotive Recycling to see what we can find, and even go around their pick and pull yard to see what parts we can find for our rescued car too.

I hope they could save mine. I've spent a lot of money on my car and it's still not fixed. It's been off road for two years and I've just had nothing but trouble and being messed about by multiple garages, the last one caused my car to have a no fuel fault and wont accept any responsibility and had my car for months saying they will get to the bottom of the fault but never did and still charged me for their time so hoping car throttle will see this message and hope they can save my car from going to the scrapyard. I feel they are my last hope.

You've just bagged yourself a very rare car! That's got the 1.4 TUD3 engine, they're very slow but the MPG they achieve is INSANE and the engines are practically bomb proof! That engine held the Guinness world record for the furthest distance driven on a gallon of fuel for over a decade. It achieved 104MPG (87MPG-US) when it was fitted to the Citroen AX in 1989 and was only knocked off the top spot by the Peugeot 207 (IIRC) with the 1.4 HDi (DV4) engine. What's even better is if its fitted with the Bosch fuel pump rather than the Lucas, you can run that on 100% cooking oil which makes running it even cheaper!

300 quid for a low number special edition 106 is a steal, I know as my Aztec SI was a lot more, christ even my 1.1 series 2 was more than twice that. The 1.3 diesels in these do like to blow a head gasket now and then, and they make about 49hp, but the mpg from them is immense. Nearly bought a key west myself, the colour (and the green seatbelts) are pure 90s excellence. Love it !

These kind of cars really are the perfect first cars for new drivers. It teaches you how to drive, how to anticipate (not much power and the brakes are less responsive but also less weight so it is a lot more manageable) and you can really feel the road while driving one. Also most rich dudes in fancy cars actually give you a wide birth because A. they think you have no money so they are deadly afraid of you or B. used to own one and feel nostalgic about it. 10/10 would recommend and make mandatory for new drivers.

That jazzy mint green interior is the most early 90s thing ever. I remember the radio adverts for all these Pug factory special editions, there was the Mardi Gras and Graduate around that time too, as well as the Key Largo which i guess was similarly specced to this Key West edition. Only 6 left, but then it's very easy to forget that 1993 was 30 years ago and there wasn't much early 60s stuff still in daily use by that point either.

Quiry info, but... I had an E reg VW Polo 'Classic/Saloon' 1.3 (2 Door model with round head lights) in white with black bumpers/trim and rubber spoiler on the boot. I got it second hand, and, my previous cars was a Mk4 Escort 1.3L, and that Polo INSTANTLY felt better built than the Escort! LOVED IT, WISH I STILL HAD IT! 😦 😎🇬🇧

It's absolutely mad how those structures can hold those cars like a shelf built for model cars. It's great how the Polo saloon, LS400 and Colt were saved. Just shows that there are people who want them on the road still. The 106 is a gem, give it a full detailing and it'll be a proper survivor. I also noticed a 4-door Mk2 Golf that looked to be in great condition. There are a lot of Mk2 Golfs puttering around in my area. Keep it stock, don't change anything on it!

Had a similar turquoise 106 diesel, same year and engine. It was slow and noisy, but also cheap, utterly dependable and simple enough to be easily maintained at home. Makes a lot of sense when compared to many modern, computer-with-a-wheel-at-each-corner cars.

I'm chugging along in a '98 Clio. Sure the mileage isn't that great but it's solid, easy to repair and fun. Also while a lot of it could be re-used it could also be re-used more efficiently every year it doesn't get trashed.

My first car was a green 106 just like that. It was given to my girlfriend and I following her grandmother's passing. It had 62k miles on the clock (this would have been in 2013/2014) and was in impeccable condition. We even found pre-2000 betting slips from her grandad who died in early 2000s. People used to mock us for the snot green shit box but I didn't care. We loved it. Sentimental value and pure shit box driving joy. So many good memories even a decade later. It eventually died of a head gasket just as we were moving into our first home so it went for scrap. But we've still got the pug badge, reg plate and a wheel trim for the memories. I still miss it.

Im a big believer in driving older cars with lower miles. Bought a 2002 Oldsmobile Alero with 62xxx miles for a few grand in 2016. Sold it a few months ago with 90xxx on it. Used it for 6 years, all I did was fix 2 new tires, a set of new wipers and $550 for a new alternator, battery and fixing a leak in the fuel line is all I spent apart from regular oil changes. car had ice cold air, smooth and had no issues keeping up with LA traffic. Its an old persons car so I drove it like a grampi. Sold it because I was moving. Base model. Was big enough for the wife and 3 dogs, did a few trips up to San Francisco and the Wine country up north. What more could I ask for.
