Hoping I won't have to sell, but with the current NHS job situation, who knows!
So, trying to figure out what sort of cash I should be looking for my BEC - here is the spec.
Locost 7, built to compete in the locost race series but never made it to the track - very nicely welded chassis
It did have a full cage, but it really limited visabilty, so only the properly braced and welded in rear section remains
SVA'd in Oct 2009
Honda Fireblade -CBR900RRS engine, as it is just under 900cc it avoids the insurance hike on 900+ bike engines
Dunning Fairbank TRT Prop
Woszher's rose jointed wishbones
fitted, with front end geometry set up by him - self centres nicely now and handles very well.
The majority of the build was carried out by a professional (photo log to show how comprehensive the build was)
The electrics were also carried out professionally
Westfield manifold with repackable end can
4 point harnesses
Full savage switches
Speedo healer v4
DAX SVA bars - I like the look
185/60/13 Yokohama A539 tyres - sporty, whilst being practical in mixed conditions - excellent tread left.
Stainless braided hoses all round
Passed noise regs for SVA and Oulton
Taxed till November 2010
Tested till Oct 2012!!
only picture I have at the moment - obviously I'll take more, at some beauty spot before I put it up for sale.
The car is bags of fun, and if it has to go I will be gutted but may need to release cash from assets
I am thinking £4999 no offers - which seems pretty reasonable for a BEC that is under a year old...

Who made the chassis? I think that more than anything can determine the price. If you can claim it to be a Stuart Taylor or something it will be worth more than a "home built". Sadly.
Its not a branded chassis, otherwise I'd be asking more.
I sold my similar spec and age Avon last week for 6.5k
So, I think taking into account that yours isn't a chassis from a recognised manufacturer, you've pitched the price about right.
