How exactly do I declare my car as scrap if I want to scrap it myself?
My horribly unreliable Rover is only getting worse, and I'm toying with the idea of stripping it down and selling it for parts. I've not done anything like this before so it will probably take me several months, obviously I don't want to be insuring and taxing it for that time. I've had a look into scrapping it and all I can find is how to give it to a scrapyard so they can take care of all the paperwork with the DVLA.
Is there a way to do this? Am I even allowed to do it?

You could just declare it as SORN I guess and slowly strip it down assuming you have somewhere to keep it that is off the road. Failing that I have no idea.
When it comes to declaring that the car is scrapped, I guess you'd have to speak to the DVLA and find out because I have no idea :p
