Euro Plus Car Parts has been buying and wrecking vehicles across New Zealand since 1985. Thornton Beach stretches along the coast at the mouth of the Rangitāiki River, backed by dunes and known for its surf break, holiday houses, and relaxed beach-town pace. We buy any make or model, running or not, with free same-day pickup right across Thornton Beach.
Between the surf break, the holiday baches, and the loose sand access tracks, Thornton Beach vehicles see plenty of salt and grit.
Thornton Beach has long been a favourite for Eastern Bay of Plenty holidaymakers, with the surf break, the river mouth, and the wide sandy beach drawing visitors year-round, alongside a smaller community of permanent residents who call the dunes home full-time. Whether your vehicle is a summer runabout that's only ever seen the beach carpark or a daily driver that's simply reached the end of the road, we treat every quote the same way - fairly, and without any pressure to accept.
Four steps, marked out like posts along the beach access track.
