Can we fill your skip with em Rav, weigh it all in as a whole?

Actually no, thats a bad idea, the scrap engine metal is worth more :)

Dan have you also got a head?
the car in question is superb, a lovely 1999 323i individual touring/shooting brake with every option known to man.. I might give the chap a decent offer after i give him the bad news....
