Thinking about something today, if you had a van in top nick and all restored, you'd probably get as much money for it if you broke it up for spares as you would selling it complete. Just a thought!

Much work and hassle though - to get the 'same' money... Why would you??

...if you'd stolen it, of course!
Reminds me, where's that wheel lock? Must fit that immobiliser....

Joey Essex stripped a van, he split it into 20 lots @ £100 each, so he actually got £1267 for it!
Only problem was he never could arrange colection appointment as he couldn't tell the time!

I do, apparently around here (Chelmsford the county town) is one of the lowest risk insurance areas of the country for car theft, think you need to get your facts right.

Facts right about what?
Some twitt trying to flog junk Minor spares for decent money!
That's FACT, no idea why you should mention insurance risks nor Chelmsford(?)

Making generalisations about whole populatuons are what starts wars, don't tar everyone with the same brush, the point I was making was that this was a very low car crime area.

Bit expensive to buy multiple tar brushes when one will do the job if you look after it.
