Regardless of the value it would seem hasty to scrap it since you don't seem to be in a rush and it's a running car with an MOT. It's out there on the forum now anyway, if someone wanted to make you an offer...
You're not in a particular hurry so like I said before, sticking it on ebay or autotrader will cost you relatively little,(or even Gumtree for free) if there is a lack of interest here, you always have the scrap value as a fall back position, when the time comes you do need to get rid.
With regard your reluctance to private sale, as long as you're honest with the advert, there isn't recourse for buyers to come back to you, if that is you're concern. Just make sure payment is all correct before handing over.
If a private sale hassle isn't for you, you could always try putting it in a local auction with a reserve of the £400+the fees, with the fall back the scrap money again. (think they'll usually help with valuations as well)
