  • take a look on ebay for all the best selling items it has, strip these out (and ebay them) and then scrap it.

    strip and break it down selling the bits on ebay and then when done, put the whole car on at 99p start to get rid of the rest

    just put it on ebay for 99p start and get rid

    Selling a car that has no MOT or Tax is a big issue.

    When people look at the car they dont know what it will need to pass the MOT.

    You may MOT it and it may just scrape through, but when they buy it they dont care as its cost free for 12 months.

    I think I've read all the posts so;


    Get rid of the car and feel better about that, the asking price is just that, not worth the arguing price, As Anewman said get you fees back off ebay.

    If 3 folks came and looked and walked away that says something.

    Get well and argue later,:money::money::money:
    I like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.

    Will the grammar and spelling police respect I do make grammatical errors, and have carp spelling, no need to remind me.;)

    Always expect the unexpected:eek:and then you won't be dissapointed

    No one has seen the car, three people booked a viewing - no one bothered to turn up - what that says to me is these people need a lesson in manners, nothing more. There have been no viewings.
    Price isn't scarring folks as there is plenty of interest but none are following up with a view.
    I'm confident the first genuine person will not be unimpressed - especially if they need a source of spare parts.
    Don’t be a can’t, be a can.

    Totally agree with you on that one, there do seem to be proffessional habitual timewasters about. But if the price is right someone will turn up;)

  • I think you need to do some extra work and discuss with your friend and if you are still unsatisfied with your car condition then you have to properly repair it i am sure after this your old car will be sold out easily.
