Wow, nice fd! I\'d say a comfy 7k, but in the current market... I\'d probably say 6k tops if the engine\'s good...

I think I might get more returning to standard and sell the stadnard car separately...

I might put it on pistonhead anyway just to see what happen... I guess it wont hurt if it doesnt sell:o

Yeah, those mods are worth a pretty penny and I would guess you could see as much as £2k extra if returned to standard (assuming you have the original parts).

Very depressing I know, I would expect similar money for mine and I paid £8500 exactly a year ago! :(

A few people of late have sold theirs for good money, I think the key is that the car has to be mint and has recent rebuild documented for proof.
