Well depends.  If its all cut up then you can take it onto their weighbridge.  Provided you know the empty weight of you trailer (tare)

Just gonna tow it in on it's back wheels hooked up to a trailer ball. :)

If I threw an engine in the car would that increase it by a lot or should I just flog the engine and all looms seperate?

You may get more cash for the engine if sold as working or recon.

Just make sure that when you go there you tell him that you are bringing in a fair bit of scrap steel, aluminium and copper.  Minus his processing costs he should give you about £200 for it all.

If you have removed all the coolant, glass, rubber and plastics etc.. and just left him with metal, the less work for him, more cash for you.

He then bales up all his metal and sells it direct to a recycling mill.
