Addition:
I forgot to ask; do we need a V5 / Log Book? If we do not have one in this instance, what would we have to do instead?

Log book is a series 3

Will need a lot of work

Thanks Phil.
Any idea how to sell it / what it should be priced at?

If you have a registration it may help.
Otherwise it’s a project worth £1-2k at the most. Can only be sold as spares if no v5 or vin plate

Ah. Thanks Phil. That puts things in to perspective for me.
We have no idea where the V5 would be. Could we get one with a VIN No.?

Yes you could.
May be worth chatting with dvla to see what to do.
On the rear bodywork is there a number plate ?

I didn't see one. Although I wasn't looking at the time. Will be weekend before I can get back to it.
Not a number plate as in V123 ABC? You mean like a VIN number somewhere?

Look fo a number plate. This can be checked quickly in dvla we site.
Vin plate will be around 3”x3”as the bulkhead looks stripped it could be with these parts.
They are different to each other
Good luck.

With no number plate, no v5, no stamped chassis number and no chassis plate then I'm afraid it's only really a collection of parts.
Some tdi and some series 2 and series 3.

Ok, thanks Phill, Anaconda.
Your help is very much appreciated.
I suppose it will have to be sold as parts then.
He probably did buy it as parts originally as he wanted to build from scratch.
Either way, we just want it to go to a good home.

If anyone reads this and is interested, please feel free to post.
We are in the North West.

You will need a lot of photos for people.
Engine 300tdi(take a photo of the passenger side of the engine,this will confirm if turbo still fitted)
Take a photo of the engine mounts on chassis & engine
Unsure what make that chassis is
Gearbox,looks a 5 speed unsure what type(photo the bell housing will tell)

List/photo everything you find
Good luck
