Coop it seems such a shame to break such a clean 340 as yours for the sake of a wheelbearing!, but no - one is buying cars in the current climate!. I do think though it is probably worth more in parts, sadly.

So if you decide to break i would like to have 1st dibs on all of the lowering parts, landy shocks, mr2 springs, scort lowering blocks.

Suddenly become interested now I've seen the colour...

Does it drive or would it need trailering?

just to let u know a little more about the car. Its a 340 1.7 gl has 68k plus change on the clock. The car is completly standard apart from dropped 2 inches and has a welded diff. Its got mot til may and 3 months tax left on it. Some prat has took the badge of the grill. Plus the gf though she'll be clever and put strobes in the head lights but i think it looks abit tacky but hey as long as shes happy haha. I got a couple of spare wheels in the garage as well there of a civic but they fit ok just centre bit bigger. Not sure wat else to say at the min. So if ive missed anything or you wanna know something bout the car just ask :)

Thanks Coop

Ok, firstly, Foggy, is there anywhere to put it?

Secondly, to RattyCoops, do you want to send me a pm with what you want for it whole?

It's a very long shot, but I need panels in that colour...

What exactly where the chances of me finding this, Chris...today in particular? Apparently surprisingly high!

I can potentially find space in the short-term Chris. Just being psychic here...but were you thinking of trailering to my place, stripping, then weighing in what's left? You're a vandal, man...a bloody vandal! It's do-able. I have access to a trailer (for monies) and a car capable of towing it. Spalding isn't that far.

cheers

The psychic is close, I can't strip a good 300 atm, I'm too nice.

I'd swap some panels for Kar's, then pass on the rest to Ben. I was going to gut it for bits but it seems criminal. I need to think about it, Coops has sent me a vague price that I'm mulling over atm. It would make it the second mostest expensive 300 I've bought though
