From parkers:

Average mileage: 70,000 miles
Cost New ('97) Ł 14495
Franchised Dealer Ł 1880
Independent Dealer Ł 1710
Private Good Ł 1565
Private Poor Ł 730
Part Exchange Ł 1180

Not saying this is what I think it's worth, just for info.

Don't forget those prices are for ordinary cars, yours seems to be a bit better than most might be, however, if you have a number for that Ł2k guy then I would be tempted to give him a call just to have it over and done with?
