How much is a 20-year-old Ford Fiesta worth?

My parents have decided for health reasons to stop driving. I am trying to sell their car, what in your opinion would be a reasonable price for a Y Reg (2001) three-door Ford Fiesta?

It has a 1242cc petrol engine and is in average condition, with 55,000 miles on the clock and sox months left on the MoT.

It sounds like it could be a good little runaround for someone or maybe a first car. It's probably not worth a lot, though, unfortunately. Depending on how rusty it is (Fords of this generation do like to rust) we'd recommend advertising it for between £1000 and £1500.
