In my opinion the UR in general only seems to be deemed as overpriced by exactly the people that should encourage its appreciation,the owners.If i was looking for a 20v RR i would be heading to Yorkshire for a serious look at this car.

I'm with you on that, it looks mighty clean and can appreciate the 'stories' that go with the car. An RR for me would have been the most desirable model of all prior to my buying a WR so it's likely got the largest model appeal to non UR owners (past or present).
I always looked at buying a UR as doing it one of two ways. Either buy top dollar motor and hope it's a solid car or buy a bit of a dog and KNOW you need to spend megabucks but have the knowledge that you know what's been done.. I went for the second option!
Looking at the 'setting' I doubt the owner is in any particular rush to sell so more to them if they can hold out for the full amount then fair play to them, I'm sure the new owner won't feel short changed.
Just think, that yellow UR in Devon (which I actually really liked) went for not much under £10k and that was waaaay off of being unmolested or original!
