Alright Dave
i would have thought you'll see £100 back for the alloys with tyres and prob £150 for the interior, after that, you'll be there forever with bits n bobs and also have a car you will need some other wheels for so you can move it etc.
Smithy has stripped a few cars now and none of them 6-pots I think, so he's your man to speak to about what sells & what doesn't.
Personally i don't know if i could be bothered with the hassle of packaging everything and dealing with messers on ebay.
generally when buying back salvage, they value the salvage at 10% of the write off figure.
I had problems trying to buy back cat c salvage from my insurers, which is parly why I abandoned making a claim.
insurers prob won't value the car at much more than £600 i reckon.
cheers

Might be worth bearing in mind that parts up here in the North West are not as readily available as in the south, so may be easier to dispose of.
