Default How do you value a Series 2?

Right this is the hardest thing to do is put a price on a car which you have spent endless hours lovingly restoring to me its priceless but what would it be worth to joe public???
Spec is 2ltr zvh, chipped, stainless exhaust, pipercross filter, full samcos etc etc...
Full respray in april and full underside resto less than a month ago.
Heres the pics let me know how i should pitch it.

that is stunning mate,maybe you should get it valued by the rs owners club. at this time of year everything has dropped.but in the summer you should see in excess of 4500 for that i reckon

How do i go about getting it valued by the rs owners club? id be happy with the valuations made but its finding someone with that sort of money who is a fellow enthusiast because i wouldnt sell it to a boy racer. keep the opinions coming.

Whats the deal with it buddy??

Service History
Owners
MOT's
Mileage
Paint - Was it painted inside, outside, engine bay and underneath or just an outside blow over?
Interior

Paul Cox is the RST S2 registrar but you will have to become a member first before he can put
a value on it.

I have quite a comprehensive folder full of history and reciepts.
Nearly all old MOT's
Mileage is 112k, which is hardely useful now as its had a full restoration.
The car was painted fully outside, all kit was done alongs with door shuts it was a full strip down job. then obviously the underside resto which was sealer stonechip then 2-3 coats of hammerite.
Interioris original 88spec, it is mint no tears or sagging of the recaros, they are two passenger seats tho and the rears have never been sat in by the looks of them.
Im a member on the RSOC site, how much does it cost to become a proper member?
