He would probably be looking at between £14000 and £14500, which is why he
has probably asked for £15000. He's not far out and has based his price on
a trade in valuation. A garage would give him £13500 at a push if he was to
do a trade-in, but he would have to be buying a decent car - possibly on
finance for them to agree.
Glass's Guide is not really relied upon as much as you think.
If he found the right buyer he would get what he wanted. It would require
evidence of a full service history, no silly modifications and also being
the correct model and not a cheaper one with a kit stuck on.

He is about spot on. Ask £15, get 14.5.

Trade would pay around £11k for it.
