Default 1988 740 gle estate for spares or repair

Hi all.
My trusty old girl has failed her mot as the dreaded rot has started to set in and although it's not terrible at the moment ( front arches and passenger side floor due to leaky sunroof ) it's going to be a yearly uphill struggle from now on in.
So i`m offering her on here first if anyone wants her to keep another on the road.
1988 740 gle estate manual petrol B230 E engine.
Was my daily drive up until the start of the month and is faultless mechanically.
Silver with black leather interior.
Has abs fitted which is unusual for an 88 model.
No towbar.
202000 miles with full history up until 170000 ish was owned by the same owner for many many years.
Looking for £200 for the whole car as i really can`t be bothered to break as i have neither the time nor space.
The car would easily drive anywhere in the country apart from the lack of mot .

Hiya folks, sorry i've not been able to answer pms due to the 30 post rule. It`s still here Tommy, just been offered £190 scrap but will let it go for the £135 if it helps to keep another old girl on the road. BB4 9DF is my postcode. Rossendale, right on the border of lancashire/ west yorks about 30 miles north of the centre of manchester.
I`m away now until saturday afternoon so if anyone wants her on sunday she can go for £135 otherwise will be going to scrappie early next week.
