Breaking it is worth while if its a Rotter mate but if its a good shell it could be worth selling whole people are always looking for a genuine gte/gsi

Depends entirely on the car, if its a great condition near standard GTE then it will probably be worth more complete these days. However if its rust covered or nowhere near standard, doesn't look like a GTE any more and has lots of good parts attached then breaking it might be the way to go.

If its anything but good condition; break it. You will make far more.

If you list parts on it and photos it's easyer to gauge and some may offer the correct money and no need to break then

A good solid Nova will get good solid money when selling, otherwise it's only worth the money in parts.
Bang some pictures up as you'll give us all a better idea tbh.

Breaking a car means you get your money in drips and drabs, and you need time and space to take all the bits off and keep them until they sell. Then you have to deal with people pissing you about. Where if you sell it as a car its just one sale and less messing around. But as said a photo would help to tell whats best.

This is so true!!!^^^^

I made more braking my Calibra than I would if I had sold it in one piece.

But I put all the money from it into a separate bank account and used it to fund my nova build (in dribs and drabs)
But If your not carefully you could look back and say 'I had nothing to show for selling the car'

However much someone is willing to pay. Check ebay and the usual places - that will give you an idea.
