Reason I ask (and you're not going to like this!) is that I'm considering selling mine.
I don't really have the time or inclination to drive it at the moment, and it's just sitting in the garage taking up a load of space
Cheers,

You may change your mind in the future and be sad about this decision and then you'll have to build another one!

Consider a local garage rental for storage.

For me most of the fun was in the building, and I suppose I've ticked that box and moved onto other pastimes now (I'm a bit of a serial hobbiest!).
I'm also hoping to move house in the next few months and a chunk of cash would come in quite handy...

I too am a serial hobbiest, from fitting my own condensing boiler (for fun), to marine fish tanks and horse riding, you get bored eventually, but I don't know about selling a self built vehicle like this.

They are a lot of fun, just don't drive them too often or you might get numb to the sensation. I to found myself absorbed by creating and fiddling whilst ignoring the recently finished car in the garage for two weeks, made the decision the other day to clear out all the shit out the way and get it out the garage for a blast and I'm enthused once more.
If it was a kit car yes, but not a self build car. You'll be that guy trying to convince people you scratch built a car and they won't believe you!
If you do don't take less than £4k
