It was getting to unreliable for my long drive to work each day (112miles) and the car had covered 180,000 miles. It was worth more in bits than complete so I stripped and scrapped it

looked class imo
tip for sound deadening removal if u want it, use an air chiesel with a blunt chiesel in it. itll all be off in ten, fifteen minutes and clean unmarked floor surface below if ur careful

used a heat gun for mine, came off pretty easy, managed to get it off a whole section at a time, then a bit of de-grease an leaves a clean surface (did scratch a couple of places)
but yeh the sound deadening weighs a shit load, i filled up a whole bine with mine lol

Quick update:
I parcel turned up yesterday containing a nice Irmscher splitter I won off Ebay a few weeks ago  Im hoping it'll help with the lack of front downforce the car used to have at high speeds.... time will tell.
Cheers for the tips on removing the sound deadening by the way guys

Cheers mate
The Van is currently in a lockup as the owner is very busy this time of year with his job. Work should hopefully start on that again early next year.
