My gut feeling for an insurance valuation is £10-£12k if it is as good as you say based on the spec's.

However don't expect that sort of money if you ever come to sell it.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

yes rover mini cab, one of a handful from the factory extensively modified lol

can be set back to standard but the grey interior and body kit where nasty
and was modified when i got it and needed a rebuild

not looking to sell but yeah £10-12k would probably cover everything
