What's this MINI worth?

A colleague of my dad is moving jobs to the US and needs to get rid of his car. He's a bit of an enthusiast so I'm confident it's in good working order and he appears to have been honest with what's wrong with it. He's had an offer from a garage but needs to get rid by the end of the week.

There is a palm dent on the back hatch below the handle and reg number from over-eager closing force.

Garage has offered £6000, which seems a fair bit lower than book price. I'm quite tempted if it's a bargain, but I don't necessarily need a new car right now. I have been looking around though...
