Have you been drinking as this thread makes little sense?? [8D]
Maybe if you give a full breakdown of your cars details, what is right, what is wrong, what is original, what is not, what needs sorting, what doesn't, what is missing, what is there, details of any accidents or new paint and full breakdown of service history we might be able to even give a ball park figure?
Otherwise take it to a specialist and see what they say?

Jason, just thought it was funny you suggested talking to Paul from Gt Classics and bought some backing plates thats all ? anyway cars had glass out respray panels sorted, new clutch, Toyos 888, rs seats but not original leather Mag wheels with original glass inside needs a tidy 55klm 10 MOT.
On a serious note, and without knowing the car's current condition I'd guess** probably somewhere around £40K - mid/high £40K depending of course on current condition. You say it needs a tidy - isn't that what you did when you bought it back to life 2 or 3 years ago?
Unfortunately your car is well-known for being 'not the best' when it was for sale in Harrogate. The UK market for RSs is quite niche and people remember individual cars and their history. Whatever you do, don't advertise it on Pistonheads because they'll remember what it was like and probably rip it to pieces without caring about what it is like now.
** This is a total guess. Without having a proper look at your car it's really difficult to tell. I remember what it was like in Harrogate so have based my guess on that plus your respray.

Steve, I understand and I'm really not trying to diss your car. I think it would be well worth visiting GT Classics / SCoM / Strasse to get a good opinion.
I remember having a look around it at Donny and it looked a LOT better than it did at GC Motors. You'd certainly spent some time and money on it.
Best of luck for a good sale. [
