A 2015+ Ford with under 100k miles has valuable components: good body panels, pristine interior, working electrics, and serviceable suspension. These parts are in demand.
Many non-runners just need a gearbox, engine, or specific repair. With under 100k miles, the rest of the car is typically in excellent condition - making it worth repairing and reselling.
2015+ Fords are still common on UK roads, creating constant demand for replacement parts. Your non-runner is worth far more than scrap metal value.
