Default Sell Whole or Break For Spares

Due to unforseen curcamstances (sp) I might have to get rid of my Volvo.

Would I be better off selling whole or break for spares?

I dont mind having the car sat for a while part are sold.

For anyone who doesn't know mine is 1999 T-reg S40 2ltr turbo

If you break it, you'll get more in parts than you would selling it whole....

It will be worth more in parts than as a whole but will take far longer to get the money back.

Cheers chaps, I dont mind it taking longer to sell everything.

I dont know if anyone will know but, roughly how much will it be worth in parts?

Might be worth checking out the for sale section, im guessing its a phase 1? Its only because the phase 2 headlights and eggcrate grill usually go for quite a bit.
