Range Rover Vogue valuation

I'm a Defender driver and don't know a great deal about Range Rover values, can anybody help with this?
My friend tragically died in a work accident last week, his wife asked me to value his Range Rover so she can sell it to a neighbour. She does not know how much to ask for it.
It's a 1989 "F" plate 5 door Vogue, in good condition with about 100,000 miles on it. It's fitted with a MAZDA 3.5 turbo diesel engine.
There is 6 months tax and MOT. The only faults are a non-working speedo and slight leak from a brake caliper.

Like with any car your trying to sell, try and fix the faults before you sell. The potential new buyer will drop the price more than the cost of the faults usually.

Therefore, I suggest get them fixed. Its not road legal anyway without a working speedo and dodgy brakes is not a great selling point.

Then clean it! inside and out! By doing so you can polish a couple of £100 into the price you'll be surprised!

Another piece of advice, never sell your car to your next door neighbour or friends for that matter! Thats just asking for trouble. If your car turns out to be a lemon, they may turn nasty or fall out with you and sour your relationship.

Then once complete, look prices up on Autotrader Online and place an advert. Make sure you take a good picture too.

Thanks for the reply. The car is to be sold as it is, I cannot get access to it to repair it and the lady is too distraught to be bothered with fixing it up anyway...
I suggested that she ask £2000 for it, I believe that the Nissan turbo diesel engine conversion adds value.

For a RRC even with the Nissan Turbo Diesel engine, its not worth £2000. More like half that and thats if everything worked.

I'd say in the condition its in, its worth £500. Look on AutoTrader.

EG:1993 RANGE ROVER 3.9 EFi Vogue 4dr Auto Estate - £1500

Yours is older and has work that needs doing....hence £500

Blimey...they do lose their value don't they...I had no idea it was to that level though! The guy was an engineer so the car is mechanically A1 (apart from the faults mentioned) and there is no rust. The chassis is fully waxoyled and not rusty.
I will tell her it's worth £500-1000...might even buy it myself at that money.
