Default Mk6 - RS2000 - 4x4

Hi everyone Im trying to make sure I dont break any rules, this is not an advert as I still need to drive the car until I get a new one...
Just looking for some valuation advice, very rough obviously as I have no pics to put up yet.

The car is an N reg RS2000 4x4 in dark metallic blue, has just gone 80k mileage, its got a strange interior (not sure if its factory) nice light grey leather seats and door cards, fake wood dash wheel and gearknob...in good condition just a bit of scuffing on the drivers bolster.
Everything electrical works other than the ABS light is on but im not sure if its the ABS or just a faulty switch, it is in for its MOT today and will be fixed if needed. Has 12 months fresh tax also.

The exterior is perfect apart from a 10p coin sized rust bubble right on the edge of the drives rear arch.

It has some model of OZ 17s on from a previous owner, need a refurb but really nice wheels and really suit it, gravel rally type alloys.

oh yeah it has the double pod looking lights people put on escort cossies too

So:

fresh tax and MOT
80k
service history
scuff on bolster
nice wheels need a respray
perfect working order
small rust patch
magnex backbox (not my addition)

I was going to chuck it on here or ebay etc for offers around £1000

not for a couple of months as Im shopping around for a new car...does that seem a reasonable price that would sell well?

Cheers for any help, sorry for the waffle!

should go as the 4x4's are quite rare and if its got the rear disc beam as well then all the better.
put it up on the bay at a low start and let it find its own value and i bet it will make over a grand
i gotta 97 mk6 ghia x with all the gti bits and disc beam,cossie fronts 17's etc etc and i have had a few poeple offer me over a grand but its my run around so it would be pointless selling it

Oh my god, why you want one of those??

Did you know that there crank shafts are made of Chocolate

If it has to be a Rice rocket then its gotta be either an evo or a skyline
