Good choice! I lost £500 on my mk2 in 6months, and it was mint! Regarding selling your at this time of year, I only had 2 people interested in mine when it was for sale. I am sure you'll grab a bargain in January.
I would say, having owned both mk1 and mk2 in recent months, despite the mk2 being much better looking, the mk1 feels like a much better build quality.
I am sure this don't help you at all! lol
