You know full well it's worth it, it's more of a "look what I've been offered cheap" thread.
Certainly wouldn't matt black it, will look shite.
Also tell your mate to grow a pair.

Definetly worth the 700 but I would never matt black a car. Strip it and make money, convert yours to a let or fix that one up and sell or keep it. Either way, it's worth buying.

Can't he just use the 5k to insure it as a 2.0 and use it?

I'm not saying use the whole 5 grand that's ridiculous, just however much it would cost to insure it, providing it's a couple of grand etc.

Obviously not. Up to his parents by the sounds of it.

id take it for 700 just for the engine and exhaust (so long as its a good runner)
strip the rest for bits and make some money back, as long as cage and other bits are worth selling, you could be looking at a let for £300 if you play your cards right

So his parents let him buy it, do all the work on it then told him he couldn't drive it.
Seems legit.
