I'd need to check the details (can't see the chassis #), but assuming everything is correct and good history, then c.£300k+ for a lhd M471.
I think the market in general has gone a bit silly this year, but a lhd RS M471 is in the 'blue chip' global collector's category (as opposed to run of the mill stuff that is tagging on the coat tails of the real classics)
This one here had some question marks over it and is a only a rhd Touring

or this http://www.thehairpincompany.co.uk/car-Porsche-911... which has popped up again. I like it and for much less than the real thing 
Chassis no. appears to be 9113600516
So, originally delivered to Switzerland (C10 Equipment), M471 Sport ('lwt'), GP White/Blue.
No evident race provenance, but if the mileage and history are verifiable then it would be a desirable example. However, it would appear that the estimates above are well adrift of current pricing.

Out of interest whats current pricing?So, originally delivered to Switzerland (C10 Equipment), M471 Sport ('lwt'), GP White/Blue.

I used to have four 2.7RS's (all M472 touring rather than lightweights)- I thought they were good cars but certainly not the best 911's I've ever owned. ( The best pre-impact 911 I owned was an ex R-Gruppe car which had a 2.7 engine, rose jointed suspension etc - a bit of a hot rod and fantastic to drive)
I sold my last 2.7 RS in 2008 for around £145k thinking I'd hit the top of the market - it's now up for sale for around £320K but with the benefit of hindsight I've have bought a different lottery ticket every week for the last fifteen years as well !
The impression I get is the more that's written about them the more they are held in adulation and the story/hype rolls on and grows with every article published, so in the end the legendary status grows almost on its own ( only my opinion) Additionally I can't recall being particularly comfortable driving it or leaving it anywhere just in case someone pinched it or hit it - overall I certainly enjoy the lesser value 911's I own now, more, for a whole host of reasons.
Just my opinion for what it's worth !
