Value of MTB w/Saracen Tange frame (19"), Manitou forks etc?

Retro Newbie
I'm looking to get rid of this bike that's been in my family for ages (late 90s?). I don't know much about bikes, but when I last had it serviced the guy in the shop told me that it was all good quality components. I see that many of them are mentioned on this site as retro components, so I was just wondering if anyone could give me some idea of what the bike is worth either as a whole or as parts.

The parts I can make out (most pictured below) are:

Saracen Tange 19" frame (Chromoly Double Butted)
Manitou Spyder (Rox?) forks
Shimano STX RC gears
Shimano Altus crankset
Wellgo pedals
Full Speed Ahead something or other (where forks join frame)
Cycle Design (?) seatpost
Unidentified handlebars (cat logo on ends? Illustrated below)

Any help much appreciated.

Re:

Thanks for the info. A friend who's heavily into bikes said something similar.

I've cleaned it up today and will offer it for sale (in the forum here, maybe ebay also), see what comes of it.
