You'd be surprised how quick it goes if you build up a spec/list of parts before you take it off. I managed to sell all the big parts before I started dismantling then started going through the smaller smarts which surprisingly went well. It all depends on the time frame in which you need the money and how much time you're willing to wait if bits don't sell as quickly.

Well that's it really I don't need the money. I've just lost interest in it completely.

I can't think of any time in the last 6 months since I last drove it that I've missed or needed to drive it etc.

As I always say, one of the first corsas I ever loved! Raced you once at Crail in my standard gsi, and there on I loved the gsi. Lol
I think I love it more than you do haha! Would be a right shame to see it broke or even worse sold to someone who doesn't appreciate it and wreck it. One day I wish you would wake up and get her out the garage lol
