KEEP IT!!!!
Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.

Break it - it puts the rest of ours up in value.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

scrap the metal for about £150...

advertise on here and other plaes for bits, be prepared to pack parcels..

best thing to do is stip it to order over a few weeks (then you dont get a garage of bits that no one wants) to a month then when it needs gone just book a scrap man to come get it.

when its gone be prepared to get requests for stuff you wish you had taken off, then when you buy your next mk2 count the ammount of times you say "i wish i still kept that bit"

oh can i have a golf ball gear knob
