That website is using glasses guide prices which as you say what dealers would expect to pay. They wouldn't add £1k onto the second hand price though to resell it. For a start no dealer will give you the top book price unless the car is exeptional then on a £1750 car they might add a £500 mark up on it but it will now be on a forcourt and can demand more than a private sale as people will and expect to pay more for a car from a dealer. It would only end up on small time dealers anyway as its to old and too high mileage to end up on a premium dealer network. It would 10 to 1 go to auction if it was part exed and then wouldnt even make the glasses list price.
Like it or lump it glass's guide is pretty much what all the dealerships will use and is a reflection on the cars current value.
