Some of you know that I have a Mazda in my secret lock-up that is reaching the end of its days .... just looking for some advice and experiences from the ones who have it!
I have a few options:-
Easiest, of course, is to make one phone call to the scrapyard and they will come and get it and give me a measly £100 or less for the whole car. But I hate the idea of them making a mint out of you guys who need the bits.
Opposite end of the scale is to do all the unbolting myself, offering the bits on here or on Ebay and then cutting up the shell to take it to a scrap metal merchant (not a car recycling outfit). But realistically I don't have the time for that, as I still work full time to make ends meet!
I have considered selling off some of the main bits to you guys, but I've recently found out that it then makes the subsequent disposal of the remainder a lot more difficult, and the total income from the work is unknown. The scrappies will reduce that measly £100 by the value of the gone bits, and I might even have to pay to have the rest taken away.
So, what have you done yourself in this situation?

I'm currently in a similar situation... Similar questions, but I'm erring towards unbolting and selling on bits, then scrapping the rest....
I'm keeping the engine though!

Same here, got crazy idea of taking engine out and lobbing it in a MX5 with a blown engine then keeping the rest for parts for the next 323 I'll pick up.... Cut up the shell, keep the straight bits and then practise welding, polishing and painting on the rest. £150 is the highest I've seen and a tip on one of the scrap sites is to sell at start of month as they work on quotas? Anyway it does seem to ring true, mine went from £50 at end of month - or less! - to £150 at beginning of next month!!

I've only scrapped one but I took a few cosmetic bits off first...rear lights and panel, spoiler, front strut brace, that kind of thing.

I then phoned a couple of scrappers and went with the best price. When they rolled up naturally they offered me a comedy price, so I said 'OK, see ya' and walked back in the house, and immediately they 'had a word with the boss' and the price came back up

You're right that you'll only get about £100 from a scrapper though. I couldn't be bothered with the hassle of stripping it personally as my time is limited, and as you say, it can make it more difficult to get rid of whatever is leftover. I don't think there is exactly huge demand for F parts either these days, so you might end up with a lot of unsold bits cluttering up the man cave

I've ended up using mine as a convenient storage unit!!
