Cool, be a shame to break such an iconic car though. But then it is
only a 1.8

If the last one I broke is anything to go by, it'll be as rotten as a year old peach underneath.

That Monaco? blue ph1 is exactly the same as an old mates first car. I had some fun - and was suitably scared in that thing!
We also had it in bits all of the time.

Some one got a bargain.
Fix up and use as is or take the Turbines off, thats an easy £200 to the Wheelwhores, engine and ancilarys maybe £150-200? and you've pretty much covered the purchase price, sell the interior scrap the shell jobs a good'un. Wish i had a yard/workshop/my own house
