Do I pay duty and VAT on the 10k that the car has gained on it's return?
Doubt it - you paid local taxes on labour and materials when you had the work done on the car. And it hasn't been transformed in to another product and the import duty if any has already been paid when the car first entered the UK. That the market thinks the car is worth more when it comes back seems a bit here nor there.
Right? Just a guess.

Riddle me this:
I export a car temporarily to Poland, where work is done, the car is then returned/imported back into the UK.
Due to the work done on the car it's going to be worth more when re-imported.
To keep it easy, a 10k car leaves, then a 20k car comes back.
