Much like salvaging a car with outstanding finance, if your vehicle still has a lease or finance agreement running, then scrapping is not going to be an option for you until that deal has been fully paid off. However, if your car is in a place where you’re considering scrapping it, then chances are your insurers will be writing it off, meaning you’ll need to contact your finance providers anyway. Depending on how badly your car has been damaged, you may be able to clear the outstanding balance on your finance agreement, buy the car back from your insurers and get it repaired and back on the road yourself, or use the money from the insurance write-off to buy a new car. In any case, you will not be able to even start the scrapping process until your outstanding finance is sorted.
