Royal Mail would probably try their best to break it. Fortunately I've never had to send CRTs in the post and, based upon the stories I've heard, I am going to try and keep it that way!

Compacts are worth hanging on to if you have one though as they're sweet little machines and are starting to become a little scarce. From the value point of view they seem to be on the way up so there may well come a time when a Classic will command £100 or more!
