Id strip it for bits if its a good spec

Dave Y

iTrader: (52)

he just wants it out of the way

The Zohan

Yup if you can get it for cheap sell the bits if you have the ability to strip it. Bare in mind it will need to be collected and disposed of once most of it has gone so factor this in for scrapping it.

Dave Y

if he has no offers i think he is going to ring the local breakers to come and get it. It must be worth a couple of hundred

The Chief

No they pay per weight, he might get 120 quid tops but i'd think no more than that, if you can strip it.

Dave Y

He wouldnt have a clue how to strip it

Stick it on a Vauxhall forum, they like them over there and might get all excited about it.
Breaking it would be the way to go, Wheels if alloys with decent tyres £200/£300, interior £150, gearbox £150/200, panels like doors/bonnet/hatch/bumpers potentially £100 each, Head and tail lamp units £40 each, plus some bits like wiper motors and other stuff maybe a few more quid and then weigth the shell in

I went on a forum registered then it wouldnt let me post anything for sale. Its a pity i have no room to break it.

The Chief

maybe try Pistonheads, if its an SRI surely you could pull off the wheels, strip out the seats and get a scrap yard to pick the rest up?

Dave Y

iTrader: (52)

could be worth a try

Pistonheads if I was you. I put my gsi on there after the belt went and managed to get £500 for it. That was a few years ago though.

Dave Y

iTrader: (52)

Took your advice its on pistonheads,no interest yet but fingers crossed.

Takes around 24 hours for the ad to be approved unless you paid for a premium ad, good luck with the sale.

Dave Y

iTrader: (52)

The ad is up and running and still no joy.

SimonD

Do breakers still pay you when they take these things away?

I thought you had to pay to dispose of cars these days.

The Chief

No, dont take it to a breakers, get a metal recyling place to pick it up. i got 100 quid for my knackered Mundano.

dpb

Theres polish guys round here willing to take away dead sofabeds

Dave Y

iTrader: (52)

still no joy with this.
