Portishead & Clevedon: Coastal Car Scrapping Made Easy
Living on the North Somerset coast has many benefits, but it can be tough on vehicles. Salt air, coastal winds, and damp conditions accelerate rust and corrosion. If you're in Portishead or Clevedon with a car that's succumbed to coastal wear, here's what you need to know about scrapping it.
How Coastal Conditions Affect Vehicles
Salt in the air accelerates rust formation, particularly on exposed metal components. Brake lines, suspension parts, and bodywork all suffer from coastal exposure. Many coastal cars fail their MOT on corrosion issues that would cost more to repair than the vehicle is worth.
Common coastal corrosion issues include:
- Rust on brake pipes and fuel lines
- Corroded suspension components
- Bodywork rust, especially around wheel arches
- Exhaust system deterioration
- Subframe and chassis corrosion
