i've tried selling my saph cosworth, but short of giving it away theres been very little interest.

so one option is to break the car, but not sure what parts are really worth, so was after some ideas.

this is the spec of the car below:-

its just about to turn 90k and has MOT till march next year and is sorned at the mo

The shell has never been welded, the rear arches are completely rust free, the only bit of rust is a very small scab on the front drivers side lip.

The engine is very good, its running MSD wasted spark, has uprated fan loom. I've just fitted a brand new radtec alloy radiator. it has a pro alloy 500 intercooler.

Its running a T34.63, not very old and the engine does not smoke. When i bought it i was told it was running aprox 380 BHP and 400 lbft of torque. it goes very well.

It has the cloth interior which is in very good condition, but the door cards do have some shrinkage.

its lowered on Koni shocks and springs

its running siemenns 55lb injectors aswell, has uprated fuel pump, full mongoose exhaust system, uprated breather system.

i've recently fitted a new alternator, gear knob and gear gaitor. It has an RS centre on the steering wheel.

It has a paddle clutch fitted, it also has anti lag and launch control fitted

this is the details off the reciept from motorsport developments for work on the engine:-

If you do decide to give it away I'll gladly take it off yr hands! Will even find it in myself to give you £100 cash for the trouble! lol

Seriously though, it is a hard market to sell for good money at present, and hence why so many seem to be broken all the time. Have you tried Paul @ North York's? I've heard he is fair for pricing.

its a nice car mate, but prob wrong time of year to sell such a car.

I'd think about de-speccing it a bit and sell it cheaper as a whole. then sell off the bits you ahve taken off.

I wouldn't be selling car with that good condition and spec, tbh...
