Default Whats it worth?

Been to look at a Granada 2.8 ghia x today for the old man. Just wondering what there worth at the moment? Its on a 85 B plate with 80.000 on the clock. Leather interior a/c full elecs. The bodywork is very good with no signs of filler. Even put it up on the ramps for us and theres no signs of it being plated. Is £2100 a good price?

it wont stay mint though if your dad is going to use it daily.
if its a real good car and your dad wants it as a weekend car to clean and look after then its not too bad.

if its a daily runner you can get a e39 5 series for that money now!
