You could do a lot better. Just my opinion of course. :)

Avoid this Ebayer. No Item. Ebay issued Refund

View Item VW VOLKSWAGEN mfd2 SAT NAV GOLF PASSAT EOS TOURAN

A DISGRACE! Item NAD Wheel was buckled & messed my courier about. BEWARE!

View Item VW Golf Alloy Wheels & Tyres (Mk5 5x112)

Deeply unpleasant seller. Item inaccurately described and refund delayed. Avoid


I've asked for suggestions here (click click). Hope you don't mind. Maybe one of the team will spot something.

Just tried to buy back the car and they wanted £375 so not that bothered about paying that for some leather seats. I'll do without :)

They don't have any bids on them though?

Its a rough approximation of worth, have a scout round for what bits are selling for, add up the cost of everything and then make a decision. There is alot of money to be made off a scrapped vehicle, you might aswell make it yourself. Bootlids are £50 or so, whole doors are £100, whole set of interior trim is about £200. Heater matrix is worth £35.

Just make a list of the things that are still working or still straight, I missed out your radiator as I dont know its condition but even that is worth about £50.

Put it up on a few forums that your breaking an MGF and I'm sure you'll get a lot of people wanting bits off you.

Will do... But its then a waiting game? Not sure i can wait. I've made a fair bit on the valuation of the MGF so i'm happy with the valuation and think i get can get something nice for the price.

Just set a time frame like Birks did when she was breaking hers. Anything not sold after say 3 weeks/month then it would be going to the scrapyard.
Obviously strip the valuable parts for future sale if they've not gone by then but still within the first week I imagine you'd be back to £1500 probably more.

How easy is it to strip the car down my mate graham would probably help but just think is it worth it when I've got enough pennies to get another one
