theres no way, witht he bits that are on it that its cost effective to sell the car as a whole..

unless someone offered me £20 + K

everything on it is of the best available and i cant see anyone negotiating over £20k for an esc cos even as seriosu as this one

Deano, what his saying is, if some one buys the engine and shell he will sell the rest, but if they dont then he will finnish it.

I spose that what he means.

personal reasons mate

also I mean that if i can sell the main bulk parts of the car.. then i will let it go and gradually sell off the rest of the parts.

if i cant sell the main bulk.. then i wont just gradually split little bits etc.....

i have the storage space, so if the shell and engine go.. the rest of the bits can be sold as of when...

will be a right old alladins cave i tell thee!!!

just done a brief breakage list... comes to near on 28k!!
