Default buy or not bother

a friend of mine is selling his 1994 wagon uk turbo , how he just wants rid, due to family stuff, he has offered me it for 1000 quid , the car only has till the end of month for tax and mot. the car has been driven daily for the last 3 years of what i know off , its tidy , does need abit of tlc, has about 90,000 on it
now the question is should i buy it and strip it ,

it has apart from being standard
facelift front bumper and bonnet
morrette front lights
17" alloys with good tryes on
alarm
tracker fitted
up rated clutch
full decat (has old one in shed)
grooved front discs

problems i know off

so what sort of money would i get

Have it , its got to be worth more in parts , the only problem can be is having no where to strip the car ,You will have to be patient though as some parts will not sell verry quick and you will have a half stripped car on the drive ...lol , ps where are you located as i might want some parts ..lol thanks WAZ

right after having a think about it , have decided as i have no where to strip the car or the time and knoledge ..i am not going to bother

have spoke with my mate and he has said that he would sell it on ebay with a buy it now price of 1200 quid , if anyone is seriously interested in buying it , i am more than welcome to pass on your info ..

in reason as well i cant see any reason why the car couldnt be put through another mot , so you could get yourself a cheap turbo wagon ..

cheers phil

right this car will be with me at the weekend ,

going to offer it as a full car for 1400 quid to see if i get any interest , but it has run out if mot and tax today , been used as a daily car for the past 2 or more years that i know of ..

if it doesnt sell for this , then i will break , but most stuff will be a collect only and remove yourself as i dont have the time ..

will post pics up in the right section once i have pick it up

most parts will be going at a resonable price if i break it ...engine and gearbox will be sold in hole

cheers phil
