my rear handbrake sometimes binds, a little squirt of WD40 on the bit where the cable goes onto (as it goes into the caliper), and its back to normal, dont have to do it very often.

I don't see why you would break the car for such minor issues,fix them,get it retested and sell it for a lot more.

I don't think you see my point, if the car doesn't sell how else am I going to make the money that I lost for the car not selling, last option is to break the car.

If you have the parts to fix it up, buy my car I'll give you a discount

otherwise don't tell me what I should do with my car

Is this out of tax? Whats it like for rust and do you have any pics of the sills, arches underneath?

Cheers

You'll find it very difficult to sell a car that someone has to come and collect on a trailer.
Good luck with it though.

Well if no one buys it I'll start breaking it, it's that simple even if it is a shame.

zombiemax I can get pictures for you 2moro as I'm moving the car to another location.

You have to remember, were else can you get an engine, body-panels, doors, dashboard, seats and everything else for £200. Thats a whole lot of spares for your money, I've seen cars without Tax or Mot being sold for £800+ in worse conditions.

Hi
would consider, but your miles away from me & I have no way to get to you with in the next few weeks, due to other commitments, let alone consider having to find a trailer & a car to toe with in order to tow the car back to Portsmouth. Have to admit it's as you say a good price & a dam shame to break another good S12. Not many round now, worth saving in my opion. But I may have some parts off you if you go that route.
