Default Question about selling...

Just looking for peoples opinion on selling my S.

Had it for slightly less than a year, purpose for buying it originally was to turn it into a track car however circumstances have changed and I no longer need a track car.

Since getting it, its only covered about 2k miles. Its got a full buddyclub exhaust on with manifold and decat, mugen replica intake, upgraded radiator, oil relocation and oil cooler kit with thermostat, custom catch can setup with welded bungs on the cam cover, aircon removed. Buddyclub RSD's fitted with full polybushed front lower arms. Its had the oil changed every 500 miles with Sunoco fully synthetic oil and filter checked regularly, currently using HKS one.

Its got ds2500 pads and braided lines all round with standard discs (solid front, drilled/grooved rear).

Interior has custom rails with custom race seat on drivers side, 5 point harness, and sparco racing wheel.

Its done 5 laps of oulton at medium pace only to do my ARDS test and since then it has only been used as a daily commute of about 2 miles.

The bodywork is mint, and has been professionally detailed by Pure Detail twice.

The car is a cat d, however when I bought it had full inspection by RAC and inspected all documents and you can not tell its been in an accident at all. All paper work adds up. Its got complete honda history with all invoices.

Drives straight and has had geo checked regularly.

Regarding selling it, the question is not about money, but more along the lines of: do i try to sell it as it is? or should i put it back to standard?.

edit: forgot to say its a 05 plate with 32k miles and hardtop.

You'll get far more money back putting it back to standard than selling it with the mods on.

Again, sorry for having to cancel on the exhaust sale.
