I have stript a 206 gti and am unsure what to do with the shell. It is in good condition no dings and only a few small scratches.
What do people think it will be worth in scrap?
Also i could sell it but i cant see anyone wanting a bare shell.
Comments welcome.

I though a weighed in shell was about £60??
If you had offered this up a month ago I'd have had it off you for the Gti engine I had. But I gave it away a couple of weeks back Sad

I was offered £50 cash if I delivered the shell to the scrap yard. Or a free collection (30 miles away).

I sold an MX5 cat a few weeks ago. £35 and had to provide ID.

Depends what you mean by bare, if it is literally has nothing i.e no subframe / steering rack you will get 50 - 60 quid scrap metal price but then collection is normally about 30 so doesn't leave you with much

Don't bother trying to sell it no one will want it
