Scorpio Ultima TD 2.5 Estate For Sale (for parts)

Hi, folks.
Well, after spending even more money my Scorpio has finally died on me. Last month head gasket went whilst driving down the A12 on the way to our holiday.
I was wondering if anyone would be interested in purchasing the car for spares as some parts are brand new.
Please PM me if you're interested and I'll provide more information.
I live in Southend-On-Sea Essex.
All the best.
Cheers,
Ian

Hi, folks.
Is there anyone interested in picking up the car for say £200, or could the gasket be fixed fairly cheaply?
Here's the parts that are new.
1). Alternator
2). Brake Pump
3). V Belt
4). 2 Tyres
Bodywork pretty good, however there's a couple of dents that could easily be repaired by someone who knows what he's doing.
Cheers,
Ian

Hi, chaps.
Thank you very much for yout replies.
I'm afraid that I have no skills in car mechanics. I only know about computers and women. 
If any of you could fix my car I would pay you well. I've only got till the end of October to get this sorted out because that's when the car tax expires.
In general, how much should it cost to get the parts and fit? My local garage recon £1400 at least and that's if the engine hasn't been "buckled".
I'm really at your hands here.
Best regards.
Ian

Hi, Den.
I didn't know you were a member here, but it makes sense seeing as you're also a Scorpio nut. ROFL
Thanks very much for your reply, mate. And thanks for all your hard work and patience in helping me out.
In all honesty, looks like my Scorpio has poisoned itself in it's own nuts. LOL A cylinder head gasket sounds like some prostrate problems to me, so it's definitely of the male sex. LOL
Anycrap. Looks like it's down to the scrap.
See you around, buddy.
All the best.
Cheers,
Ian

ROFL. I only understand female cars, mate. You know, the ones that are bad tempered once a month. Actually. I know nothing about female cars either as my wife seems to go wrong once a month. I must be a proud owner of a shemale Scorpio. ROFL
Cheers,
Ian

Folks.
This car is still for sale if anyone's interested. It does drive, but I recommend that it's towed away for repairs.
Please let me know asap as I would like to sell it before the end of the month.
Regards,
Ian

Hi, Graham.
Thanks very much for your reply, mate.
That's a very good offer, but I do not know anyone who could fit the gearbox and engine. Also, I'm sure it would cost a great deal to fit too.
Is there anyone could could do this?
Cheers,
Ian
