Finally had someone look at the bmw and its not good, too much rot so thats made my mind up, its getting broken!
Can anyone give me the heads up on the best way to go about breaking it without stripping it all down to take individual pictures?
The ad will be going up on here.

Take pics of the car itself and list the good stuff and prices in the for sale section would be a start. "Oatcake" has just done this with his techII sport.
Remember, pictures tell a thousand words so plenty of pics to help all the "window shoppers"
Oh and don't ask too much for stuff if you want it gone quick! LOL

Shame too see another Tech1 destined for scrap.
If it was me id take a few good pics of the car from outside at different angles,few interior shots and engine baay etc then list individual parts such as bodykit,trim,wheels,engine etc at your set prices(= or - postage of course).
Dont forget to state your location in the aadd too otherwise the Zone Police will be along to remove it.
Good luck!

Nice one thats all i needed to hear, im not clear on prices but ill do some research or something to get a better idea.
It is a shame, as for most from the outside it doesnt look too bad but going in deeper it just gets worse, plus its been garaged for 2 years and is still managing to rust!

I've been pishing about with a Tech1 sport for the last 7 years and it's a vicious circle!
Never the less, I'm a bloody mug and love a rusty turd! If you'd be interested in selling the whole thing, drop me a PM.

So my intentions for anyone interested are, ill take pictures and post sometime this week and start breaking next weekend, if anyone does want to buy it as a whole then you have a week to show your cards. Any suggestions on price would be appreciated ( no ill give you a tenner for it) Thanks people!
