Actually looks like a tidy shell, not much rust on the rear arches and both bumpers look pretty good, IE not split / cracked.

Lights and Ghia interior all gonna be worth something..

If you've got the space and patience to break it up and deal with the idiots on Ebay there's a few quid to be made..

or get a scrap engine for nowt, bolt it in and weigh the whole lot in.. you'll make something back..

Paid a wee bit more for mine probably, but it was bought as a daily rather than a breaker and I genuinely love it.

Bargain!! You'll sell a few parts on the bay and weigh the rest in for almost that... free engine.

I'd have to had viewed mine with a balaclava and sawed off shotgun to get mine that cheap.
