2007 Ford Fusion Zetec Climate - collected in Bellingham
Proper non-runner, this one. A 2007 Ford Fusion Zetec Climate with a snapped rear axle: the car literally couldn't move under its own power. Classic "nobody else wants to know" call-out from a remote Bellingham address. We winched it on and had it off the drive the same day.
If you've ever seen a snapped rear axle in person, it's the kind of fault where you know immediately: this car is not moving again under its own power. Ford Fusions are sweet little cars when they're healthy, but this one was going nowhere.
The seller had rung around. National buyers want a running car. Some of the scrap yards will take it but only off the back of a trailer you've paid to hire. The local option was us.
We turned up with the transporter and a winch. Cable on, walked it up the ramp, strapped down. The photo we've got of the snapped axle is on this page: that's what we mean when we say non-runner and MOT fail cars are genuinely fine. We see this stuff most weeks.
V5 signed into trade, car off the drive, done. Remote Bellingham address, no drama.
Non-runner, mechanical failure, MOT fail, seized engine, dead battery, SORN, "it's making a funny noise and I don't trust it to reach Newcastle", all routine. See the full list, or go straight to a free valuation.
