In the entry-level Cossie ownership market (ie cheap sapphires with over 100k miles like yours) there's a tendency for people to like them standard as it's their first Cossie and insurance is an issue.

Anyway, I think the above estimates are excessive, on eBay you'd be lucky to see £3,500 for it. So it's had a respray? So what, could be cos it's a rust bucket and the rust will start eating back through within months... you see what I mean??

You have something in common with me - we both have recently spent a lot of money on our cars, but what we spent isn't going to up the resale value of it much - so do what I'm doing and hang onto the damn thing even if you are "bored" of it - it's worth £5k to you so don't sell it!
