In the current condition as seen, and missing the record deck, which would be more useful than a tape deck, then I dont think this unit is going to be popular, it looks like it has FM which is one bonus anyway. The cabinet is not in the best of shape so I would guess at about £10 to £50. (you may even have to pay someone to take it away)

The best option is to try and get the radio chassis serviced and a decent record deck fitted, not necessarily the original type, then it could be used for playing vinyl records. But please note, servicing costs unless you did it yourself would probably outdo the finished value of the unit.
