I see decent beaters sell for scrap all the time. 1998 Saturn SL1 with 200k KMs (120k miles), had a cracked fender and needed 2 used tires. Sold to the scrap guy for $125. It wasn't pretty but it drove fine. If someone was looking for a cheap car, it would have been a good choice. But it seems like no one is even trying to find one. There is almost zero demand for cheapo beaters around here, the people that would have bought that stuff 10 years ago don't even have licenses today. I don't have a swimming pool, but I learned how to swim anyway, just in case I ever needed to. To me a driver's license is the same thing, just because you don't want a car doesn't mean you shouldn't at least know how to use one if you had/wanted to. And don't even get me started on how many people I deal with that can't drive standard ha ha.
