Really not sure what to do, I know I can get a decent amount for this one or the new one, I doubt I'd get the same amount back if I broke mine as I'd want to put quite a few bits off it onto the AWD.

For the sake of interest only (dont get excited)... What bits would anyone want off my R if I broke it?.. Headlights, indicators, rear lights,grill and strutbrace are definitley not for sale as they'll be getting swapped over. Pretty much everything else will be up for grabs as lots wouldnt fit the AWD anyway.

List.. (Off the top of my head)

Scorpion exhaust. £200
18" Nebs (refurbed) £400
BSR intake £70
Fully reconned 18T £200
Front bumper £100
Brand new rear shocks and lowering springs for Nivomat delete. £100
Manual Gearbox. £150
Reconned Cylinder head £150
De catted downpipe £50
Mesh grill £50
Pair brand new Genuine hand brake cables £80
Clocks £70
Rica 310 mapped ECU £150

Anything else you can think of.

This is only too see if there's any actual demand for breaking it..

I'd be interested in the front bumper mate and possibly the interior if I can fit an R interior into mine

I'd also take front bumper, been looking for one in that colour for so long now its getting old
Also need a standard or dual exit rear, mine looks like someone has been trying to eat it

I'd definitely buy your rip kit if you're selling it.

And maybe the downpipe if it still passes an MOT with it fitted as I dont have a mod-friendly MOT station to use.

Silly question - will these fit my 2.5T as forgot yours was an R?
I kno this is all speculative just thought I'd ask 1st.

What about a price for the car minus the bits you've decided to keep?

Sorry guys, the other car has potentialy now sold so this one won't be up for sale/getting broken as it'd leave me with nothing.
