Thoughts on selling - modified or standard?

Righto, probably going to sell the CSL, I'm just bored with pushing road cars (ie > 1000Kg) around tracks, Spa being a good reminder of how unsuited road cars are

Its a good nick CSL with the following mods:

Supersprint full exhaust system
Alcon/CSL Cup brake system
Intrax 1K2 Suspension
Turner Limiter Kit
Billet seat mounts / Sparco Pro2000 on Recaro Rails
Schroth Harnesses
Safety Devices rear cage
9" x 18" TD 1.2 (spacers on rear), same 285 tyres all round

in terms of trackday suitability, about as good as you need.

The question is - should I put it back to standard (bar the exhaust and brakes cos I have no std items) - ie refit the csl seats and interior, 19" csl wheels, csl suspension and sell the parts......or just sell as is ?

Its in good nick, I had UB sort out anything which needed sorted and whilst its done some track time its been well cared for with regular oil/box fluid changes etc. Even had the wheel retrimmed ;-)

55k miles so not quite a high miler although no garage queen. No accidents etc.

What do you reckon in terms of value with and without the extras? I'm wondering if the cage/seats/stripped interior actually devalue the car ie the perfect combo would be the car on its CSL wheels (with the other wheels included in sale), intrax, supersprint and alcons and the original interior/seats refitted.

Ironically the cage is an attention-to-deal UB fit so worth a lot to someone who wants that...but I fear not many do...

thoughts ?
