 What to do? - Runfer D'Hills
My wife's Qashqai is going in for an MOT shortly. I'll be astonished if it doesn't pass. She hasn't used it much at all this year due to health problems ( thankfully improving slowly ) and any times I've driven it I can't detect any problems. It's in very good condition despite her best efforts to cure that and has only done 45,000 miles. It'll be 7 years old in March and we bought when it was 2 years old. It's a 1.6 petrol manual, gives good, or at least reasonable economy and has proven mechanically sound.

She likes it very much and while, like anyone, she'd not object to a new car, she freely admits it'd almost certainly be something similar or indeed the same she'd end up choosing.

We could afford to update it but the dilemma is really why to bother. It does everything she wants it to and we no longer feel all that precious about it as the cost of buying it has long been forgotten in the household finances.

What would you do. Stick or twist?
