Default Dilema

Hi all, the time has arrived for the wife to take her driving test, so in preperation for her passing im going to have to get rid of the scoob for something more manageable for a 1st time driver. The only problem is do I sell her as she is or break her up, I would need as close too £5000 as I can get.

Here is the spec list :-

1998 UK 2000AWD in silver running 330BHP
87,000 regularly serviced miles (every 6 months by my self for the last 3 years of ownership, full Barrets S/H in the book)
Factory Fitted Black & Grey leather interior (Very Rare)
Electric Sunroof
HKS Turbo Timer
60mm GReddy Gauges (Oil Temp, Water Temp, Exhaust Temp, Oil Pressure, Boost)
Apexi Power FC + Comander
Apexi AVCR boost controller with 3 boost settings.
Lateral Performance MD 302 Turbo
440cc Injectors
K&N Induction Cone
Blue silicone hoses
Powder Coated Black FMIC (Unknown Brand)
Catch Can
Brembo Brakes all round with Braided Hoses
17" Team Dynamics MonzaR wheels with Kumo tyres (one wheel curbed round the edge)
Full turbo back Roger Clark Exhaust (2.5" throughout too 4.5" backbox)
Front & Rear Upper Strut Braces (JapSpeed)

Cant think of anything else right now, would I see near 5k for it or would I be better breaking her, gutted as only built her this year, would rather someone buy her and enjoy her as much as i have.

WHAT SHOULD I DOOOOO AGGGGGHHHHHHH

its hard to tell these days as some times it does give more money braking the car down but sounds like nice car so would be a shame let me know price for the apexi ecu and commander if you do brake

£5000 sounds alot to me, as i paid £4700 for a mint 1 owner 75,000 miles f/s/s/h 2003 blob eye but i might be wrong. my wifes crap at driving she pasted 2 years ago but she gets on better in the scoob than her saxo, only prob with that is i never get to drive it my self.

I know what you mean D4n but unfortunatly what I think the car is worth is greater than what the car actually is lol I (just like everyone else) want to see as much as I can for her and see it go to a good home with out breaking her
