Default Breaking a mint 3dr? Spadge/Paul etc

I know a few tidy 3drs have been broke over the last year, What sort of money did you get back?

Is it honestly worth the extra hassle of breaking a car, waiting for money etc?

I know i got alot of mint parts on mine, dash, 500 spoilers etc and the shell is undamaged and original paint.

Break my heart to do it to her and still not 100% sure if i wana keep her or not.

Rob
I wouldn't go as far as breaking it entirely if i were you!
To maximise your return the best way would be to put it back to more standard form and sell the bling/performance bits seperatly. Your car would easily be worth 8k+ with say stage 3 and the extra's a few grand more. Obviously this involves a lot more work and a small outlay for standard bits if you don't have them already but selling good qaulity cars can be like pulling teeth also

yea know what ur saying spadge, just looking and the price 500 spoilers, mint uncracked dashboards etc are going for at the mo id be stupid not to break it, had thought about making it more standard, always an option

ill have a look through ebay later see what things are going for.

TBH if i wont get at least 16k one way or another i probally wont bother anyway

cheers
