Interior, spares, sound deadening etc? Or is there no point, just think my car needs to shed some somehow as it feels like a right lump!

Don't do it! :|
If the car feels sluggish, it probably needs a good service.

Strip it back if you dont care for creature comforts, i personally wouldnt dream of stripping my interior unless it was a dedicated track car or freaking insane drive car.
