Not sure the 2.6 / 3.2 cats are worth that much. Also if selling the car to a scrappy, they will knock the price down if the cats have been removed.
they will knock the price down if ANY PART is removed  ;)

it's worth phoning a specialist buyer for a price like https://www.warrmidlands.com/

NOT some dodgy local pikey  :P


Agreed.


Considering the OP is in south London, he might want someone closer to home. Like THIS company.
warr midlands is a good place for the price of the cats
your link site is to get a price for the complete car  :-\
 or do they give decent prices for cats ?

They give good prices for junk cars, plus they collect and pay quickly. Deb's barely running, MOT'd for another week went for £350 :o  I'd need a good reason to sell a sub £1000 car any other way now.

If was a Pre Facelift (MFL) then I am looking for the black 'Banana' (I think its called) trim on the inside door trim pull handle. - part 90432838.

I have tried to source for a while now with no luck but they are rarer than an honest Politician in a General Election   :-[

Anyone has any sources (not from Russia  :o which I have found a link to  :o) then let me know.

Andy,

As DtB and Nick W have said, worth getting a quote from a scrap firm before removing parts, as if its "complete" and still almost drives, you may be pleasantly surprised what you can get for it, all hassle free.

I got well over £400 for the Battlebus when the front subframe dissolved.  I think I would have been hard pressed to get that from the parts, and would have had the hassle removing and storing, and then persuading a scrappy to pick up an incomplete car....
