Hi peoples, 2001 silver estate 1.9tdi 190000 miles, Now a cat c write off due to a small accident. 

I am thinking of breaking it, just wondered if there was any demand for parts off it. Only damage is the rear bumper and driver door switches, or sell the lot to the local scrapper. 

Depends a lot on what model it is and if you have the space to strip it and be willing to hang on to parts for a while.

If you join freedom (See "shop" link above) you can advertise parts off it, but coming on here with 1 post screams a little of "I've just bought an octavia estate to break for parts"

 

Apologies if this is clearly not the case.  There is not a massive demand for bits off non vRS' so you may be better off Ebaying as a Cat C spares/repairs than the time and effort needed to break a car and sell the bits

Sorry people I have had the car from new and never had any problems except servicing etc so never really looked around for problem solving solutions etc, I had no intention of selling it until it was hit from behind, still on original clutch and exhaust. Its a 90 bhp Ambient. I just don't like the idea of just scrapping her.

Better the devil you know... maybe just source the parts to fix it yourself?

 

There is money to be made in breaking, but more in the VRS models and it takes a lot of time and space.

Fix it
