You would need a big set of Ba11s to take that on.
Shame though. Probably somebody out there screaming for some of those parts.

Wonder if it starts/ drives?

Parts? What parts? I doubt there is anything salvagable there apart from the glass and maybe a couple of lights!

well the engine wont have rotted away, i would imagine the block, heads and dry sump system are worth the asking price to someone.

There will be a lot more than £500 worth of parts on it, so if someone had the space it could be a good buy.

So as you say glass,lights. If somebody needs those PARTS then it,s a result.
What about suspension trim engine parts. He is not just selling the V5 !! As renault 12 says there are more than £500 worth of parts on there. It is a 40 year old car so the parts will be hard to source.

Looking on the link could be around the corner from my home, just think of such a car being driven into the garden & left to die

 

[jonnyboy]

Is it a dry-sump engine?
I'm not convinced that there are £500 worth of parts there, especially as transport costs will be at least the same amount again.

No idea of value of the specific parts on that model, but I imagine that the 6.3 V8 and other mechanical parts would be quite rare/valuable these days.

Not worthy of a restoration project, but if you needed the parts then I guess it could be worth investigating

 

[jonnyboy]

i wasnt aware it was a 6.3, note to self, have eye test
