If it hasn't got an mot then you cannot sell it as a car. Legally it is just a collection of parts.
A prospective buyer can't take it for a test drive on public roads so will have no way to check it's condition. They will also need a trailer to collect it.
If you can't be bothered to mot the car then don't expect much more than what has already been offered, i.e. scrap value.

A little harsh me thinks. Scrap value approx £130 and i dont think anyone has offered that yet.

+1

Anyone who tries selling a car with the words "No time available to re mot" either doesn't realise the difference in value between a ton and a half of scrap steel and a decent car with a full year's ticket, or knows full well the car will never pass a MOT.

Spend the hour and the £55 getting the thing MOTd and you'll sell the car for about £500 more if it's in the condition you say it is.
