After my last post which was about my crash i had in my GSI 16v, i have found out that the car might be a right off! Plus i'm not fully comp on the car, so will basically lose out! Is there a way to sell the parts of my car or can somebody offer me advice ?? Any advise would help now ??
Thanks

yeah when the insurance make you an offer ask them if you can buy the car off them and take a smaller payout.

Yeah, ask to buy the car cos u want to repair it no matter what the costs (sentimental value or summit)
Could get it for £50 maybe.
Then sell bits on here,
Engine? - £250ish
Bumpers?
Skirts?
Spoiler?
Interior?
Most of yer bits will be sought after, cos it a top model.
But then u gotta shift the left overs.

the only things you probably won't get rid of is the broken bits...

The only broken bit is the front chassis and the front right light ! But it has just got a new Magnex exhuast etc.... Loads of extras... Will give it some thought, thanks for the advise... As far as i know, if i don't get insurance involved, then the car is still mine and i have not lost out just yet. So will not have to pay them for it, but waiting to hear how much it is to fix. Hopefully if less than £1000, then i will fix it for sure!

If no 3rd party was involved then there no point in advising your insurance comapny...unless the police were involved also.

Just trying to re-iterate your point mate.
"No Shit Sherlock"
Becoming a bit of a catchphrase on this site isn't it, may need updating don't you think. No need for sarcy comments is there!

I had an accident on Feb 14. Still waiting for the third party that smashed into me to be contacted to see what position they are taking on liability, seen as he hit me he will struggle to get out of it, and if he trys I will kick ten shades of shit out of him.

The car is yours whatever. People always tend to go through insurance now to get whiplash claims. What car did she have?
