No, but you would have to get them pretty cheap to make it worthwhile. Not saying don't do it, just saying it might not be as good as terranos.

That said, one can drive legally a non taxed and mot'd car IF it's to a pre-arranged MOT test at a garage.
I usually book it in and do a 24 hour ins on it drive it home and cancel MOT test appt . Simples
Then again I'm over 25 and have a license
Sneaky but i likes it.

I don't know if Scottish law is different, but I think you have to take an additional test to tow a trailer.

Might look at getting somthing popular like a landrover, ford, Vauxhall etc
I would do lots of research before buying cars to break.Popular cars like fords vauxhalls etc are waste of time scrapyards are full of them.You need to find cars that not so many people are breaking so its worthwhile them either traveling to you or paying postage.Simply buying cars because they are cheap wont necessarlily make you money if the parts arent in demand.
