FOR THE MANY EMAILS I HAVE RECEIVED FOR THIS CAR, I AM BREAKING IT BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN LISTED THREE TIMES AND NOT SOLD. MOT RAN OUT 16/04/07. I HAVE CASHED IN THE TAX DISC. AS FAR AS I KNOW THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR.

I AM DOING THIS VERY RELUCTANTLY!!!!!

Exactly, if he wanted £400 for it with no t&t noone would want it, Ive emailed him asking how much he will take for it as a complete car.

There you go then, £300 for an old car with no MOT is just plain silly. Let him break it for parts and if he gets £300 in pieces for it I wish him all the luck in the world with it. You can't save them all and there's plenty more out there.

I e-mailed the chap & mentioned the club, but if he wants more than £80 which is all its worth without mot, then he will appear to be breaking it. I wont personally be buying any parts from a car that is fine & is just being scrapped for the sake of it.....

Nah

i think that he'll pop up again when he knows that we have most of the parts that we need and will only buy the parts if they are fixed to the rest of the car

:P and not for £300 :P without an mot :P
