Default 1989 740GL Estate Auto + O/D

I have had "Big Red" since new. It's done about 160K miles. Obviously I'd like it to go to a good home. Attached is a picture of it during a long trip from Cambridge to Caernarfon and back.

Minimal body-rash. No dings. It's had all the regular services and then some. I get around 25-29mpg. I love this car and honestly kept on top of it.

In the last few months I have had folks stop me and ask if I would sell it, and frankly I thought they were joking because it's so old, and I had no idea anyone but me liked them. But now I wish I had their names, because I am leaving the country at year's end, otherwise I'd just keep it chugging along. I have some spare trim and other parts.

Does anyone have any advice about the most straightfoward way to sell it please? I just don't have the time, or patience for games. Looking online I see similar vehicles with 5-6K price tags, but maybe that's unrealistic?
