Default I dont want an XR8 anymore

Ive decided im going to sell my ute. I havent touched it in over a year since putting on new wheels and brembos. Ive lost interest in an ongoing build because its an XR8. I dont want a run of the mill. Although my build would be individual to me its only ever going to lose value (been here before). I am considering a P250 or something old like an XR ute. Something that is going to hold value yet maintains its versatility.

My car requires a little TLC before i sell it, but i dont want to over capitalise on the car. As it stands, to make it a neat and better functioning ute I need to replace the sensor in the overflow, intake air temp sensor, new intake to suit acron box, repair a dent in my tailgate, freshen up front end paint, new drivers door lock actuator, replace verticle plastic strips along side blind spot windows, repair handbrake cable and repaint headers.

Car has 167k kms, p4001's into twin 100 cell cats into dumps, F&R whiteline non adjustables, MSD coils and leads, new momo gear knob, fairlane sw, staggered 19's and front 4piston brembos w/ brembo discs (plus some maintenance stuff).

I know its hard to tell without photos or seeing it in the flesh.
A P250 is the likely choice. Do i take off the parts that i can transfer across and just neaten up my current ute. How far do i go?
