I say do what you want with it, Bri had 1st refusal to buy the car back and turned it down as he has moved on to other things. It would be a shame to see this Lude getting broke though.
but also, if you bought it with the intention of keeping it on the road, then why did you go halves with someone else
just seems odd to me

Depends how much you guys paid for it and how much it'll cost to fix compared to how much you could break and scrap it for.
So you only intended to end up with one Prelude each at the end of this? Why wouldn't you just remove the bits you want from it and break the rest anyway if the arches are rusty?

i know exactly what you mean dude
it was exactly the same for me with the type S. i got it cheap, hoped to be able to put a it of cash into it and come away with a bargain type S, but it turned out to be a right shitter
fortunately it had some tasty bits on it so i made my money back and managed to keep a few bits back for my own Lude

But at the end of the day you now have all the bits to make any other Prelude look like that nowvanzep wrote:well i wouldnt like to dwell on it it too much - if it had been my car and id put that amount of work into it id be gutted so im not going to put up any pics of damage or rust etc

It's surely just a simple case of doing the maths to see what makes financial sense right?

Was one of you planning to keep this car and sell your current one, or keep is as a second lude?... Or just sell it on again?

nah it wasnt that easy nafe wish it was - feeling were definately involved
at the end of the day id like to see more ludes on the roads rather than less but time and money do figure in the equation somewhere along the line
