How much is a scrap Ford Focus worth in Hampshire?

5 September 2026 5 min read

Real Hampshire scrap payout ranges for the Ford Focus — Mk1 to Mk4, petrol vs diesel, runners vs non-runners — plus what pushes the price up or down.

The Ford Focus is the single most-scrapped car on our Hampshire route — every generation from the 1998 Mk1 through the current Mk4. Payouts vary widely by generation, fuel type and condition. We don't publish a fixed price list (metal moves daily), but here's what typically drives the number up or down.

What lifts a Focus scrap price

  • Diesel 1.6/2.0 TDCi with an intact catalytic converter and DPF
  • Complete car — engine, gearbox, wheels, cat all present
  • Alloys rather than steel wheels
  • Battery still fitted
  • ST or RS trim (often worth more parted-out than scrapped — we'll flag it)

What drops the price

  • Missing cat (common in Hampshire theft hotspots)
  • Fire or flood damage that's melted wiring/plastics
  • Missing engine or gearbox
  • Cat A write-off (must be destroyed intact, so no parts value)
