Right, it's time to let my hdi go. It's just not practical anymore for me, and I've lost the love. Apologies for not putting a price, I genuinely have no idea what it's worth.
Bad points:
Gearbox is leaking oil, the clutch was done recently and I think it's possible due to this, could be a seal.
Exhaust is now hanging very low under the car as it has come loose.
Front bumper is bent out of shape as I drove it up a kerb (that I had parked behind but forgot was there) like an idiot! Not that noticeable but I know it's there.
Rear tyres are legal but not a huge amount of tread left.
I think there's slight camber on the rear beam.
Good points:
Stage 1 map from pro Steve
Berlingo clutch that's only done a few hundred miles and was fitted brand new
Banded steels with almost new rainsport 2s on the front.
Front mount
Half leather interior
Roof bars
Decent bodywork (apart from the front bumper), the odd car park ding.
Lowered, how much I'm not sure, but it's low!
Straight through exhaust
Dewipered
Rolled rear arches
Rallye blanks
Set of black masks that need sealing that are sat in the boot with a set of brand new plates.
Alpine iPod stereo, 4 channel JBL amp, large JBL sub and fli comp6s upfront (one of which has just stopped working, presumably my shite attempt at wiring) all of which I'll leave in for the right price.
It's on just under 160k and I really don't want to break it. I don't have the time or money to sort what needs doing or to break it so I would rather someone just came and took it! MOT until November I believe (will double check) and tax until the end of the year I believe.

I'm located in bolton, Lancashire. Fancy something petrol next, would consider swaps for a 6/106 gti or whatever you have.

I'd have this if I had the cash. Good call on a 106 GTI, having owned one for 8 months I can't recommend them enough, as fast as a '6 until 65-70 but 45mpg on a run and 30mpg round town.

Genuinely no idea what it's worth so that's why I haven't put a price. Really don't want to break or split so a decent offer and it's yours!

Really need this gone now, any offers? I'm only looking really for the value of the wheels, plus scrap value and a bit more due to the parts and ICE.

I would if I had the time or space mate, sadly I have neither so need it gone! It's still on the road so needs to be tax'd and insured, so want it gone ASAP so I can look at getting a replacement!

I really would put a price up, people don't seem to be keen on making offers mate. Just ask for what you'd be happy with.

My bet would be driveshaft seals.

Piggy the bolts vibrated loose after a week. Seen as he said after the clutch change... could be the shafts too but its a coincidence.
Not a massive repair either way

The bolts don't form any sort of oil seal.... I'd also go with shaft oil seals, doesn't matter too much though, it will only leak to the level of the shafts and seems to do no damage at that level.....from experience lol.

Come on guys, take this off my hands, I've got a petrol itch I need to scratch and the money from this is going towards a deposit, needs to go! Can't even move it to my new place as it won't go up the ramp to the car park, so has to go haha!

Haha you make a fair point. I'd take £750 inc the ice and the smooth panels (danny2009 has got these).
