'92 BB4 acquired! Anyone want it?

A '92 BB4 in silver. H22A, manual, no sunroof or cruise.
I saw this a few months ago in the back of a mechanic's workshop, so I acquired it today. The body is a bit shabby, as you can see there's a ding in the front wing, and a dent by the side of the rear screen. The bumpers are a bit displaced, probably from having things driven against them in the workshop, but they're not damaged.
No bodywork rust.
The paintwork is shabby too - it would really need a respray to make it look nice, so as that and the ding repairs would cost a grand at least I'll probably part her out.
Do you know, I realised today that although I've owned three 4Gs, I've never driven a manual! So I took this for a blast around the country lanes this morning. Good, innit!
She drives great. Although the idle when warm is a little low and she cuts out if you come off the gas and declutch.
So if I part her - anyone want anything? I'm in Ireland, so postage for any small to medium part to the UK would be about £8.
