Did you not consider taking a bit less Dan, just so that you didn't have the hassle of breaking, and you'd still be able to see your car at shows etc?

Was orginally sold for £4,250 which fell through, I had a minimum of £3,500 was going no lower Graham, was a lot of car for £3,500 considering I've put almost £15,000 into it!

There is some big £££ items still to sell, and I've made what I consider ok money on parts so far!

Always going to be my car, I built it, I took it apart, my ideas which no one can try to fob of as what they done!

Its sad and quite depressing taking it apart especially the parts I spent endless hours doing, but would rather me destroy it carefully than some "chav" buy it and crash it, ruin it etc.

All will be right in the end!

Night I took all the exterior body panels off, I honestly stood back and could have cried looking at it!

Dougie just sent me a CD full of pics from the TV photo shoot also hasn't helped me feel better

Fair enough, shame it fell through would have been nice to see it about still!

why strip it if you love it so much? why not just keep it?

Was either a second cheap car and keep the corsa, or buy a nice newer car and sell this!

Sold it, fell through I'd already bought new car and...

Couldn't afford to have £4k - £5k sitting in a car which wouldn't get used!
