yeah, drop the subframe off, lift the front of the shell and roll it out the way. Or just wait for the guy to come and lift it with his lorry, leaving the subframe and engine etc on the floor for you to strip at your lesisure.

well it wont be there long will it. Once the shell is gone, you can strip it down and move the bits within an hour or two.

If anyone says anything tell em to mind their own fucking business, its not getting in their way any more than the whole car was.

you have to remove it with the key in schaks. It's got a locking mechanisim that only releases with the key turned.

prity much mate.

Turn it to the second mark on the ignition, if it don't pull out try pushing the locking bit in at the same time. (if you have a look around the ignition barrel and casing you'll see what I mean)

No pics here at work mate, Soz

yea thats what they do.

turn the key in the ignition and keep pressing on them, when you get to the rite position they will push all the way in and allow you to pull the barrel out with the key.
