Default 1995 850 T5 estate - spares or repair

Following a slight mishap my T5 requires more repair work than I'm willing to take on. Just put 12 months tax on it, MOT until December, 154000 miles.

It's a manual and officially in red (although most panels are somewhat faded) with reasonable condition black leather interior was running great (and engine/gearbox and most mechanicals are still sound).

The bad bits - front bumper, bonnet and passenger wing have cosmetic damage following the accident. One alloy was severely damaged so spare is on (i.e. no usable spare wheel now).

The worst bit - NSF strut and wishbone mount have been damaged so camber and caster are both significantly out (probably a new strut and subframe required). It is drivable but I wouldn't trust it for a long distance so trailer uplift would be advised.

Refund of tax and scrap weight will give ~400 but willing to break or sell whole car (with or without tax) for the right offer.

Can't send PMs currently so if you want to discuss details privately PM me an e-mail address.

Cheers

Tim
