DaveyLC - dont know what planet you are on, but time/effort?? i will have that engine dropped with in a couple hours,and have everything stripped off the car in a whole day, dont worry i will updat how much money i make.


and yes i am in the middle of converting my brothers car into a 2.0 .

dont people read posts? the car never used to look like this!!!!!!! i was speaking to my mate tonight who remembered the car and that it used to be quite a tidy thing ( although both of us hate bodykitted up cars) it wasnt until his ex scratched every panel, then he sold it, the guy near me bought it as a project and smoothed in the bumper to the wings,and put filler on the boot trying to repair the scratches but never finished it.

you obviously arent gettin the point that the car never used to look like this, its only the owner that bought it and decided to do this and leave it sitting.

the effort that goes into stripping a car??? you are obviuosly a lazy badger!!

disposing of the car??? load it onto the trailer with the rest of the scrap when it goes.

Theres some muppets on here

Conversion kit alone will sell for £100+

Engine, so what if its shagged.. Strip it, sell it in parts, £100

Wheels have plenty of tread, theres £25-£50 to some chav

Some boyracer will have the bonnet for 20 notes

Give the interior a proper clean, thats another £50...

All starting to add up, and thats just a few bits.

Worth £70, gonna get a few hundred in parts methinks.

I dont deny there is 'profit' but its all of the effort involved.. Depends how much you value your time I suppose?

I'd rather spend £70 on a car I can sell for £500

In my eyes a serious bargain has instant re-sale value.. If you have to put significant work into something to get the resale value you are simply being paid for your time. Obviously if transporting a car with seized brakes and removing an engine is your idea of a cracking evening then its a bargain!

£70 well worth it in my opinion as VXR has mentioned in his break down of the price.

i m needing shafts hubs for my brothers conversion i am doing, and its got a powercap so he can have that too, or i might sell it and just fit the vectra pipe that i was going to originally
