		You might have seen the thread I put up a couple days ago about the 406 I bought. Long story short, didn't get on with it, back in the 306 and the 406 is on the driveway.
I can't do anything until the log book comes back but trying to decide what to do. I'm torn between selling it or breaking it to try and recoup the money. Paid £350.
2001 406 Estate HDI 90
255k
Climate control
Auto wipers/lights
Foglights
blah blah
It has 12 months MOT though so I could punt it on Gumtree aimed at say a builder or window cleaner as something they can put their ladders on, etc. Paint is shit, it was red but as it's an ex-taxi it has been painted white at some point...badly. 
Opinions?

		May as well try and sell it whole first, nothing to lose. Can't imagine you getting a huge amount more from breaking really...
