Sounds like a nice car. If it wasn't red I'd be interested as I want to upgrade my clubman.

My guess is that you were shocked in a bad way by the value and not positively.

Honestly, I think your best bet may be to bring it back to stock as much as you can (not that you're far off, but remove the window decals and yellow tint) and list it around $11,500~$12K (just a guess on price based on a quick KBB and NADA search) and see what happens in negotiations.

I'd bet you're better served selling your cai, 2nd set of wheels, the stubby antenna, grill badge holder/badges and try to recoup some $$ there. You're dealing with a higher mileage car that has a smaller audience in the clubman, so a potential buyer will want it as close to stock as possible.
