I have most of this car available for spares at very reasonable prices.
The whole car could be taken too but it is missing a few bits.
It is in Bromley, SE London but can post some items if need be.
It is a runner, it was sold to me with starting issues but I have started it 3 times today with no issues at all. I suspect a sensor does not like getting hot.
The engine could come out if wanted or I am happy to take the head off and sell that separately. It sounds as it normally would but I have no idea on its actaul long term condition. I bought the car from a friends just wanting rid - all I wanted were the new tyres, couple of trim bits and the rear bumper.
Seems like it but there is hardly any value in them.
I took the good bits for my other SW.
The ABS does not work either. Not worth spending any money on it and chasing down various problems.
If parts can be used on others then I think that is the way to go.
I know it just seems crazy that the entire car could be sold for £600 if you just fix a sensor.
That would buy you some nice wheels and rubber of your choice and you are not left with the hassle of breaking it.
Also the SW is a bit more desirable and you can actually use the boot as it has fold down seats.
If I was so bothered I'd take the entire engine and replace the 1.6 with the 1.8 but its miles away.
Fair enough, can't argue with the facts of what people are willing to sell at / buy at.
As you say least you are getting some parts out of it and then flogging it for scrap value.
A few extra quid you make on the side can be beer money then.
Looking to have the car taken away late next week.
Let me know if anyone wants more parts.
