Ride It Like You Stole It!

Son arrived home with a car on a trailer yesterday. It belonged to a mate but the car, an Audi A3 S Line is knackered. He had a thought of doing it up and selling for a grand.
Let's say I was not pleased. Where are you keeping it then ? He didn't know. So much for doing a mate a favour and taking the car from his back yard.
I said aren't you better scrapping it for a couple of hundred. Anyway on further investigation the car has its own swimming pool and eco system. He decided to scrap it. I said the alloys and tyres look OK. So he got £200 to scrap it and kept the wheels which will clean up and sell for a fair few hundred with good tyres. Far more profit and less time.
