I would guess keeping if not needed, means road tax, insurance.......

its value selling as is, is nowhere near the value in parts, so if surplus to requirements and have space to break, its a no brainer

Hi Thantos,

Sorry to hear you are breaking the car!
How much do you want for the lowering springs?
Thanks

Sorry to hear this, I know you've spent a lot of time and effort on her.

How much would you need for the headlights and indicators?
And do you have a strut brace?
