Scrap it. No one is going to offer you any more than scrap prices for a MK4 shell, not as if they are rare.

I think you asking too much as it was very little mot and tax , and not complete ,ur best bet is too break it , as it's semi /full stripped, will just take time and effort,

Shells aren't worth anything unless you transport it to a scrapyard yourself.  I struggled to give my shell away last week as scrap value is so low right now.
