My question is can't any of those cars been restored instead of crushed? I hate seeing old cars being more depleted each year. I always wonder if they could be restored.
most car can b restored i resently seen a mother of 2 kids bring in a vw golf 4 who cant get her exoust pay after the inspection and had to give it the scrapyard while the golf 4 was beatyfull still but if it is been delated out of the goverment regestration then it not able to go back on the road sadly they super har with emisionsomes and most peeple are against it so it truely sad to c them go but carscrap yard workens offtem take oltimers home them selfs for free haha
At least 80% of the cars are possibly to repair, mostly even easily without great effort! The parts are often very low at price for older cars! They only end up here, because the cost of labour, because of the high taxes on labour, about 60-70%, if the labour was lower of the half it woud pay of to rapair the cars! I participated for 2 years in a pilot project of realy recycling these kind of cars, but when it became know and popular they had to close the project, because the car firms (garages) in the surrounding complained of loss of costumers and they called it unfair competition! I think it is the other way around, they makr it imposible to think and work in an other environment friendly way!
and i had to do a yearly check to day and it not possed du to a stipid micro leak in the exoust and the drive axel rubbers are worn wil cost me 600 euros that is just pethetic for a simpel exoust and 2 stitty rubbers
“I just can’t I just can’t I just can’t seem to get started! Don’t have the heart to live in the fast lane, all that is passed and gone...” “Worthless!!” “And there ain’t nothing you can do about it” “Worthless!!” “Pardon me while I panic!” “Worthless, Worthless, Worthless...”
Car recycling at its finest can't even remove the salvageable parts before weighing them in lmao what about the head lights could of sold them for parts
Ethan Price the cars that are crushed meenst they have to mutch spare parts of the specific model they are crushing on the otherside i can take evry part i want those scrapyards here civil peeple like you a d me are aloud to enter the yard with youre own tool to salvage what yoy wod like if you need a light of tbis car is crushed you can buy 100s thats why its crushed
The greatest enviromental load lies not in the fuel the car uses during it's lifetime, but in the production in the car ietself! I think it was 1:2 or 1:3 or so, that means that the energie en materials needed for the production of the car is 2 or 3 times more than the pollution of the car during it's lifetime, because this is realy huge! Thinking of the winning of the ore, making it in clean metal, forming the metal, conserving the metal, transport in all it's stages and so many more foor the plastics, glass, etc. and the labour and energy consumed by the workers in the production, travle to the plant en at home, all are needed to build the car, truely a hugh amound of enery = pollution!
Dominik Fichtner thanks i took this on my galaxy s7 can film in 60 frame persecond in hd so it fims verry nice :) verry mutch more vids wil b recorded with this device
FAR too slow, and the "metals" saved will be contaminated. This is why we now have magnetic brass, etc. The Picasso looked to be in decent shape bodily, no doubt failed the increasingly ridiculous "Emissions Test" in the EU. If they're REALLY concerned about the enviroment, the governments would encourage repair, rather than trashing everything considered "old"...Same as the Digital Switchover to Digital TV's a while back. Many good, working, and reliable, and let's be honest, better-made sets than the cheap and nasty China ones, were simply dumped.
Es ist ja aller Ehren wert, ein Auto gescheit zu recyceln. Aber diese Methode hier - 12 Minuten oder länger für EINEN Klein-Wagen - erscheint mir nicht sonderlich sinnvoll.
This is a primitive way of recycelin Automobiles. And moreover, it is quite inefficient to move this heavy Excavator in order to extract some Wires of Copper or, in general, to separate some Kg's of Material.
i think those they wil keep them longer til cutomors trip them for parts customers are aloud to strip those parts them selfs and pay after they got what they want
A total waste of fuel and wear & tear on your equipment (money) tearing little pieces of car off and sorting them. If you are into wasting money, just hire a bunch of people with wrenches and screwdrivers to take the cars apart piece by piece.
@@djlau1 LOL Just look with the camera and not around it and maybe someday you will get it, I hope. Have a nice day. PS: If you go back you can see what I mean.
Talk about make a meal out of it ! All that fuel burnt to save 2 kg of wire least u made the weight back up with all the shit u chucked back in the boot though lol
