Breaking a 98 V70R advice

[volvokid]

I’m considering breaking a V70R how much money do you think I should be able to fetch overall with all the parts?

[dave854]

Whats up with the car? Would be a shame to see another R go. I would imagine though £1000 easily for basic parts and prob more over time if you've got somewhere to store the car while you strip it.

If it was just a leaking turbo pipe I wouldnt be thinking about it, I changed the turbo. but the gear box is duff I think, and the mechanics said the gearbox has been opened up recently so the person who sold the car may of knew of the problem hmm I wonder eh.

You'll make good money if you are prepared to take the time and dick around with eBay. 2 grand without too much trouble for a fully working car, probably near 2 and a half with real patience.

Al Id rather sell this thing as a whole rather than break it I would like to just break even with what I have spent on it. I know for a fact I'm not breaking a car at my house I'd have to find some place to do it.

That's probably your best option. Trouble with cars like this, is that certain parts (wheels, brakes, interior) are quite sought after, but the rest is generally not as sought after. Bumpers are good, but you don't want to be left with a rolling chassis parked outside your house on blocks.....not very neighbourly :slap:

What does it owe you?

Is this the pink AWD from on here a while back?

Price depending I would buy it

Alternatively I have a perfectly good M58 gearbox, transfer box and diff in the garage
