Default Dilema what to do.?



About two years ago I gave my son a 51 plate Diesel, Stainless Exhaust, Walnut dash, DD unit, Walnut hand brake, Walnut steering wheel, ect! thing is he has decided to buy a 06 Mondeo.
He informed me he no longer needed the Rover and I could have it back and park it round my house, got it today broken nearside front spring, offside rear window dropped down, and the inside like a tip empty cigarette packets, don’t know what’s best, try and sell as is, or take the best bits out and sell, I am not a happy bunny with the state it is in and not in the mood to spend money on it.
The only good thing on it Has a sound engine.

If the car is basically good, try to sell it as a going concern, if no takers then, as hard as it may be, break it

Cool

If it’s in sound condition then just clean up and sell it on. These cars are getting scrapped for the silliest reasons.

Hi Bob.
Hope you are keeping well, in general yes it is in a sound condition, it just pd me off the way it has been run into the ground, I suppose it could be brought back up to scratch with a bit of time and effort which I don't have.
