Default Questions

After a mechanical breakdown ( no compression on No2 cylinder) I'm giving serious consideration to parting company with my 2004 V70R manual 126k miles.
My options I suppose are to sell for spares or repair or break the car up for parts. I suspect from reading other advice breaking up is the most profitable option. However what do you do with the "bits no one wants"? Will the scrap man come along with a Hi-ab?
Moving the car becomes an issue if you sell the wheels/tyres on day one, and I have no "leave it here "space...
Advise from those who have been through this process would be most appreciated. The car has lots of under 2yr old bits tyres/brakes/ driveshaft and turbo.
What I want for the car I suspect is a lot more than people would be prepared to pay, but I would also appreciate comments valuation too. I see cars on ebay/autotrader of £300-800 then see a set of 18" Pegasus wheels of £ 800....

Cheers
Bob
