'95 Suzuki Cultus, driving but needs work, sell or scrap?

    Hey folks, just looking for some quick advice. My brother just replaced his 95 Suzuki Cultus with a newer car and is looking for the best solution to get rid of it, while still maybe getting at least something for it. The NCT expired 31 May 2013. He didn't try put it through since it expired but it isn't in the best state at the moment. It drives and starts no problem but it's eating oil and has to be topped up very frequently, as well as that, the drivers window is smashed, happened when it was opening (electric), something must have given way and the whole thing just shattered. Don't know too much else about it but I'm sure given the age and NCT being over 2 years ago, it's got a few other surprises. Although it's probably been driven less than 10K since the last NCT. It's a 1l so cheap enough to tax and insure.

    He's had a few dodgems calling to the door, one offer was €40. He's keen to get rid of it now but it could end up anywhere with these guys? Any suggestions on the best option? I told him to take it to a scrap yard that he could get about €100 and at least he'd know it's been scrapped and get a scrap cert etc. I'm still even thinking he could get more than that though considering it's driving fine. He wants the most convenient and hassle free option so the likes of keeping it and selling for parts, or driving to a scrap yard in the middle of nowehere is out of the question. Just looking for a quick sale/disposal and must be all legit.

    Any feedback appreciated :)
