Advice on what parts to save when breaking an Xm

[onza100]

So my landlords have insisted that I can no longer keep my spares Xm outside my workshop. So I'm now in the process of breaking it up.

I'm already halfway through taking the engine and box out and I need the dash and electrics so I'm keeping that.

Ideally I'd like to keep the car rolling so I can get it to a place the scrap man can collect it.

I'm just wondering what people think are the must keep parts?

Strut tops.

Odd sensors, Vehicle speed sensor, magical Citroen boxes like the blue one that controls the interior lights / fake bulb warning on S1.
Bitron boxes.
ECUs (maybe you already covered that in electrics).

Height correctors, electrovalve units.
ABS block.

Weird and hydraulic wonderful pipes, I.e the ones to the steering rack, anything that looks like it would be awkward to have made up.

Radiator(s) and coolant pipes if you have the space for them.

Awkward bits of trim, glovebox struts, things like that.

Gearshift linkages.

Window regulators and central locking motors.

Difficult to find windows - if you can safely remove them, like the bonded in rear quarter panel ones.

Sunroof motor. Whole sunroof cartridge, doors and wings if you have space.

Subframes and sills if you have space - that's a big If!

I'm sure there's more.

Aha sorry I just saw your 'need to keep the car rolling' bit :S

You could always support the stripped bare carcass on a couple of trolley jacks?

Sadly on xms EVERYTHING should be kept!!

I just taken one of my last in and it was a shell LITTERALLY! I even cut the rear quarter glass pieces out!!

Proper job...

I see a windscreen and rear bumper on that car, Paul.

Windscreen cracked attempting to remove.. rear bumper trapped on by stubborn towbar.. both of which i have a couple of bumpers anyway i think...

If you are not keeping the engine I would certainly take the pump off, they are getting very rare now but unfortunately complete engines don't seem to sell very well.
