my lwb with the same things removed as yours was £143. But as Andy says , it depends on the yard and current value.

Just out of interest, do they go by the VIN plate for the weight that they pay out on or have most of the got some sort of weighing device?
Where I'm coming from is it worth filling the back up with more scrap metal to get rid of and pay out on.

They have a weighbridge in the yard Pete, and weigh you in and out...
Like you say its worth loading with all the cr4p you can get away with...I usually sweep the yard, that goes in spare well on in footwells...running a hosepipe into seats and carpets will add a few more kg too.
Its worth depoluting it fully so it can go straight in shearings sooner than end of life, get more money that way, and if the car is heavilty stripped anyway it might only mean to draining maybe some brake fluid/ps fluid/diff oils, but its worth it.
