Most likely a small trader or mechanic will buy it as a cheap run around
#17: Re: Sell Car.. Price... Headgasket Gone Author: Danny., Location: PeterboroughPosted: Wed Jan 19, 2011 5:58 am ---- YEa thats my plan.

#19: Re: Sell Car.. Price... Headgasket Gone Author: Kersh, Location: Bridgnorth, Nr WolverhamptonPosted: Wed Jan 19, 2011 6:31 am ---- 100 quid start no reserve, no buy it now.
reserves put people off.
no point in a buy it now, if someone wants it bad enough they will message you an offer, plus people might get in a bidding war and go above 400.
and if you start it low it attracts alot more attention, and an item with 22 bids going into the last hour is going to look like much more of a good deal to one going in with no bids.

Better the devil you know sometimes.

It's a TU lump, not skimming the head while it's off is just asking for the gasket to blow again in a very short space of time

Just for reference the shell is worth about £50 in scrap metal and that works out as a free collection at most scrap yards.
