To break or try and sell?

I've recently acquired a 03 Peugeot 607 2.2 auto diesel. Contemplating breaking it. Any idea if parts for these are in any sort of demand? Bodywork is very good. It has 150k miles on it.

Is it roadworthy? They didn't sell in big numbers so I'd say limited demand for parts. Selling complete an option?

Tax is a killer on them and so theres a very limited market for them. Maybe try and sell it, taxi drivers may be interested if its the right price and roadworthy.

it's too old to start as a new taxi is it not?

what sort of money are you after op?

Too old for taxi.
They really are a smashing car, and I hate French motors with a passion. This and the C6 are actually the only French metal I would consider. (60's DS would be acceptable also.)
So is it the black leather or the red leather and how much would yu want???

Thanks for the feedback lads. Took it as a trade in selling my own car. Was happy with getting the cash the previous owner offered. It's got black leather. I was goinng to throw it up on Donedeal for 900, but any serious offer at all would walk away with it. NCT until next June.

Post a link when it's up... I do like them. Damn shame about the tax though.

I kinda recognise the background I think? Did you used to have a good few cars there?

Actually. Probably not, wrong name.

I used to have a 3.0 v6 one these with cream leather and every extra available I loved it but keeping all the warnings off the screen was near impossible! I them became a taxi driver and the less than 20 mpg in the city made me get rid.
I really did love that car :-(

Mine used to have a phone where the tape deck is on that one and a handset under the armrest its actually hilarious to think of that set up now! Text messages came in on it and it made you feel super cool, even had its own sim card, none of this Bluetooth nonsense like we have to put up with these says:-)
