I will be breaking what left of it. Please could someone advise me as to how I should value bits? I really have no idea what the bits are worth. E.g. i saw a boot badge go for over £50 on ebay, I would no way have priced it that high!

I did not realise there would be such an interest in parts!
I do not know what condition bits are in until I get it back in a week or so. I know one of the front calipers is broken which is a bugger.
There are certain bits that I may be using for a project. the ones I know of so far are;
Engine, box and clutch
brakes
drop links
I dont know exactly how I am going to proceed with the project yet so can't really commit to selling parts just yet. There may be a slim chance it can go back on the road if it does not cost too much.
I am getting the car straight back from the insurance company but they are deducting 25% of the total settlement what ever that comes too.

That sounds like a reasonable (good) deal. Here's to a good settlement figure and just as importantly, that you get behind the wheel of a cerb again soon. If I were you I'd buy the best out there so that in the future you can look back at the event as a good thing, financial concerns aside. The financial side can be easily forgotten but less so the emotional one.
There must be lots of value in your car, not least the engine. Best of luck to you.

Thanks for that, a cerb is in the back of my mind but I am speaking to plasticman about a creation of his that has recently caught my eye!There must be lots of value in your car, not least the engine. Best of luck to you.

If people want to put on this thread what the want then if I come to pull it to bits then I will know who wants what.
However going back to my original question, how is the best way to value the parts?
Mark, yes the car has aircon.
Ed, The car has Gaz shocks on it but im sure one has been damaged in the crash but I won't know until I get the car back.

If you have a standard exhaust rear silencer I might be interested...sorry to hear of you misfortune but glad your cerb was carrying a donar card...if thats the way you decide to go.However going back to my original question, how is the best way to value the parts?

Not sure the best way to price...look at similar parts for sale on pistonheads & TVRCC websites...maybe call the breakers for the larger, more expensive parts...?
