Mgf Vvc for sale - spares or repair

Reluctantly I need to get rid of my vvc. I no longer have the facilities to work on it and it wouldn’t be viable to pay for the work to be done.
Main problem is the rear quarter panels need replacement/repair panels welding in. Brakes need attention - rear discs at least need replacing. Wiper motor and alternator both seem to have packed up while car’s not been used.
Engine has Land Rover gasket and oil rail, stainless steel coolant pipes, new clutch master and slave cylinders and hydraulic piping. Front sub-frame, cat and lambda sensor replaced fairly recently. Exhaust is stainless steel but slight leak in weld on rear pipe. Needs one new tyre. The other three are good (Toyos). Seats are leather and in good condition.
I would prefer not to scrap it if someone would like to take it on.
Will sell for £200.

Hi James
I’m in Stoke.
Car does drive but, as mentioned, brakes are not fully effective.
It’s a P reg.

I still have the car but I’m afraid the scrapyard is now beckoning.
