Check that it has gone back to Canon for the recalls, one was for the AF and one for a mirror fix. It is a very good camera with excellent AF and decent high ISO performance (when launched it was the best around but has been surpassed by newer models). If it is worth it will depend on what you shoot, for sports or wildlife it is a decent choice. However for many styles of photography there are better options for the same money. I looked at one last year for wildlife work but decided to go for a 7D instead as the higher crop and video features were more useful to me than the slightly better AF. As for the price, sub £1k is probably right for a private sale as they tend to go for ~£11-1300 through dealers.
