£2000 to £3000 is pretty bang on the money for a boiler replacement, provided no substantial alterations are needed to meet current regs.
A boiler aged 27 years will be non-condensing, probably quite hungry on fuel but very durable and reliable. Provided you have a good service technician and spares availability is good, then I would keep it.
If you are planning on moving house then just factor in any survey/buyer will see an old boiler as a negative but it's still not worth changing now just for that factor.
We ran an old Harcol boiler for many years, the service technician said it's far more reliable than the modern versions but alas eventually lack of spares saw it scrapped.
