IMO It's worth 2k if not more.
The sport you just showed us is average millage 90,000, good condition, £1265.
Bearing in mind that this is also a sport and they are common these days.
It's quite hard to find a GSI in such good condition and low milage so I'm saying £2k or more 
I supose you could call it rare and someone like ME would like to snap it up!

so almost 3 years then, people need to realise that dents and scratchs to cars lose value, having no dents or scratchs does not add value above the top pricing guide as the value for having no dents or scratchs is already there

it needed saying didnt it, the hilarious thing is people like rob listen to what people on here say and end up thinking they have some "classic" car, my advice is speak to someone who actually deals with cars and im sure they would not even offer you anything, when you can pick much newer cars up for not much less.

A 1967 Corvette is a 1967 Corvette? Its not quick, doesn't go round corners, but clean ones are worth loads....
An old Triumph motorcycle bike is old, doesn't handle very well, doesn't go quick, breaks down every time you take it out, but worth more than a lot of modern bikes........
Just because its a shopping trolly, doesn't mean its worth a bit to the right person. If its as mint as you say, put it up for £2.5k min and see how you go.
As for getting 51 plate SXi's, well, you go for that, they are gutless, whine like a pig with a poker up its ass, sloppy handling, AWFUL brakes. So what if its newer. If the GSi is as clean as he says, then its quicker, comfier, looks better, stops better, rides and handles better, in fact, the only worse off things are the usual tax, insurance and fuel costs........
Im sure someone who may be interest on here (if they are wanting a clean tidy car) would rather spend £500 more on buying this, than buying a same age GSi, thats rotting, needs a respray, panels sorted and adirty interior. Its a saving alone to buy a cleaner example than to try to sort a rotter.

This conversation could go on for ages, the car is worth 2k possibly more if some1 wants it with those extras on.
some people will see it as a good buy because they will pay £1500 for a standard gsi and to buy the extra bits like wheels, light ect, its gona cost them more then £500 so it is a good buy.
other people wont think its a bargain because they want to do something else to it and not keep those parts on it.
also comes down to where abouts you live, i sold a 1.3 m plate escort with a rs2000 kit on for £1250, because it appealead to boyracers,
in essex by the way. in some areas i would of only got £900

THing is rob and majority of people on here are the minority yet they think 99% of the popualtion think like them, when persoanlly id rather have a whining brakes corsa sxi that im not having to shed out loads of money on every MOT time because i own a shiny red corsa gsi L reg that doesnt have any scratches wwwwwooooooowwwwww.
Get a grip, corvettes and all the other crap you were on about pal, i genuinly dont care to be honest a cars a car aslong as mine gets me a-b without costing me to much money im happy, and to me the thought of someone handing over 2k for a 12 year old corsa just makes me chuckle.
