Fair Price for a S1 Sport 160?



I am selling my S1 Sport 160 - heavily modified to a fantastic spec by Rob Clarke. Cutting to the chase - what is a fair price to be asking for this car?

Mad, bad SVA Sport 160 with substantial modifications that took it on to win the Bristol Speed Championship and to hold 5 class records including Colerne, Castle Coombe and Llandow. Former Rob Clarke car.

This car is deeply impressive. The engine is tractable at low speeds but revs for England into the bargain. In the hands of a good driver it runs rings around cars costing 10 times as much.

Engine
Minster prepared VHPD pushing out 202bhp/142ft/lbs. About 8000 miles though the car has done 75K.

maintained regardless of cost - spannercheck after each track day, fluids changed every 4.
Various spare parts and all items removed over the years.

Only downside is a small amount of damage to the OSF and OSR wheel arch gel coat.

Fabulous spec - that's an awesome upgrade with the DTHTB's on it. £12k - £13k I guess? Might appeal to someone looking to join in the LOTRDC next year perhaps, I'd have suggested alunr but he's recently bought one!
