Breaking a 306... - Toms306 - 09-01-2013
Well, as title, I know loads of you've done it so how much do you roughly get breaking a 306? Either hatch or estate...
And what are the 'best' selling items?
Cheers
Tom
RE: Breaking a 306... - Curt - 09-01-2013
Well it's going to depend heavily on what 306... If it's a '6 it's going to have a lot more desirable parts that are therefore worth more than, say, a povo 1.4...
RE: Breaking a 306... - Grant - 09-01-2013
Me and Niall broke a 1.8 meridian and got about £750. Thats before deducting the cost of the car, and the parts we kept ourselves
RE: Breaking a 306... - 4WayDiablo - 09-01-2013
I got about 600 from my diablo meridian but didn't sell the engine /panels/ beam
RE: Breaking a 306... - Niall - 09-01-2013
Your breaking it because of a small bit of rust? Man up.
RE: Breaking a 306... - puglove - 09-01-2013
I got £1200 for a GTI6
-£350 for the cost of the car
so around £850 profit
also kept a few bits that were worth around £400 second hand
Not bad for 2 days work
RE: Breaking a 306... - Toms306 - 09-01-2013
Not mine Niall.
Unless I can't p/x it anyway, as it won't pass MOT in March, and a car with not MOT or tax is worth sod all whole.I'd seen another that might've been worth breaking though, it was a HDi meridian hatch... What are the main 'easy' things to sell?
RE: Breaking a 306... - puglove - 09-01-2013
beam
seats
lump
struts
Brakes
wheels
This is what i find flys off thhe shelf with gti's
ph3 head lights
RE: Breaking a 306... - Grant - 09-01-2013
Dials, heater dials if no cracks on AC button, ECU BSI and Lockset
List goes on...
RE: Breaking a 306... - Eeyore - 09-01-2013
Bumpers, interior, black ABC Pillars, interior plastics, heater fan, wiper motors, fuel pump, speedo, maybe the doors and wings. Definitely the bonnet and maybe the boot.
From the 1.4 I probably made about £350 and I have all the spares I need!
RE: Breaking a 306... - Toms306 - 09-01-2013
I find doors seem to be hard to shift, but the rest of that is pretty much the same as what sold well from the golf. Hmm, definitely some profit to be made I reckon.
RE: Breaking a 306... - karl1989 - 09-01-2013
ECU, maff, wheels, panels ect. depends on colour aswell if its popular you will sell the panels quick if there mint
RE: Breaking a 306... - puglove - 09-01-2013

yep you wont get anything off the others unless its limited edition, special parts or extremely good condition.
Remember I was lucky being able to shift £200 worth of parts straight to dec for his dturbo!
RE: Breaking a 306... - Birk - 09-01-2013

RE: Breaking a 306... - cwspellowe - 09-01-2013
I made about £1800 off the GTi, but a lot was reinvested in the estate. That had a lot of custom shiny bits though
RE: Breaking a 306... - Niall - 09-01-2013
Pellowe love the new sig!
RE: Breaking a 306... - cwspellowe - 09-01-2013

can if viewed on a computer
so where has he gone anyway
RE: Breaking a 306... - Dum-Dum - 09-01-2013
I reckon youd get £500 to a grand breaking depending on what it was, how much time your willing to spend listing little bits on ebay and what car it is. a ph3 GTi6 could make alot of money especially if its got a few mods.
£200 engine
£100 box
£100 clones
£50 inlet manifold
£100 seats
£100 rear beam
£50 brakes
£700 there just for the big stuff
then you have all the small stuff like steering wheel, center console, master cylinder, clocks, carpets, lift pump body pannels, bumpers, skirts, crystals, rear lights, mirrors, spare wheel, battery box, wiper motors etc.
Tom if you find one cheap and think you can make the money I might be able to help with fronting some or all of the money for a cut of the profits.
RE: Breaking a 306... - Toms306 - 09-01-2013
Thanks for the offer Chris, but I do have a small amount of money aside for this (or similar) so I'm ok from that aspect. I don't think there'd be enough profit to share in all honesty though. But thanks anyway.
Browsing ebay I've just found another potential breaker, a golf that's gonna be written off due to rear end damage....hmm, wonder how I could get it to mine, could triple the cost with that to be honest.
I do have a lot of time and will list everything on ebay, that's the only way I made 2200 from the golf, spending time taking every last thing off and sticking it on ebay and posting stuff.

I'd say go for it... Find one that you are guaranteed to make a profit off and do it... Reinvest the money and you could make some steady cash !

Haha, you never know! A million would be nice tbh...
The main issue is the logistics of getting uninsured cars to mine....hmm...

Yellow pages? Man with flatbed?
RE: Breaking a 306... - Poodle - 10-01-2013
Insure them for a day? Admiral only charge me £15 for a day - not great, but not exactly bank-breaking either.
RE: Breaking a 306... - burnmw - 10-01-2013
Saw the title of this thread, saw the OP and thought - "Hmmm Toms doesn't normally need any help breaking a 306..."

The golf that I was looking at is a write off (rear end knock) so can't be used on the road/a frame etc. Jakes idea would be best, but I don't know anyone with a flatbed. Would have to see if I could find one.
