You might want to get the subframe checked, to make sure it's not bent.

im thinking about just stripping it and selling it for parts as the insides are not far off mint

You can get the bits cheap but it all depends on what she`s worth to you to fix or brake.As Stribo said inspect the subframe,which is cheap to souse too really.You can always buy my v70r and brake yours if its not worth fixing,mine is cheap to run too.

I`ve now got the car and it has no tax or mot and it has some scratches here and there so not worth me doing the mot work really but the engine and auto box are brilliant,not sure if its mapped or not but she really does burn the tyres when you floor it.I`ll be taking the lpg system out and probably break it.You are morethan welcom to come and see it tho.
