Not having a go, but I think your being a bit shortsighted. A new car could potentially be another money pit then you're back at square one. Additionally, GTi 6's are worth buttons now, even in bits. You probably won't make as much as you'd hope for, parts you thought were worth something will be binned and people will waste your time. Given you can pick another engine up for £200 - £300 I think this is your cheapest and easiest option ________________________________________ '98 Nile Blue 306 GTi 6 |

Yeah a new car could be a money pit, just like if i fix the 6 that could turn into a money pit. At the end of the day its my car and my decision and ive decided to get rid of it. I know what parts are worth and ive listed them well below that, you seem to think im hoping for top whack on everything .. I dont care what the parts go for i just want the car gone.

So my thinking would be that if you have time to break it by taking off all the parts and faffing around with collection and postage then that is gonna take more time than fixing it.Best bet if you'd consider it is selling the car as a whole to someone who will either fix it and use it or sell it on etc. even if someone else broke it you still would be shot of it straight away. Breaking cars is very time consuming. Sorry to see another phase 1 go though . I've recently saved a black phase 1 at work and literally resurrected a diablo phase 2 as the lady that owns it had more money than sense!

My cam belt became shredded after a loose bolt got in there. Timing was out but after a new belt kit it was a goer. Might be a bit of a tapper though! |
