Woo hoo

Swift passed its MoT today - straight through (I'm amazed TBH). Quite a few advisories about rust setting in, plus a hole in the sill, and the boot struts dont work (duh, really, never noticed that one), rear tyres low on tread and a perishing CV boot.



So what do I do? Now is the ideal time to sell - 12 months MoT and 6 months tax. I can sort most of the rust out and get a mate to patch the hole. I've got new driveshafts on the way anyway, so boot will be sorted. Could probably get £900 with the alloys, maybe more if I'm lucky. Then look at getting a BX 16v or something similar.



But then again, with the MoT and tax it would be wise to keep it as I know its a goodun, and its a great little car.



Jeeeez, I'm well stuck! Advice?


That's what I keep saying to myself, but there's also other things I'd like to try. Plus I could buy a cheaper car and have some cash to blow on some Megasquirt goodies for the Ovlov!!

Can you get what you *really* want if you sell the Swift?

If the answer is yes, then it's time to sell it. If the answer is no then best hold on...?

the derv us right, i say hold onto it if it's a solid lil runner, save cash till the swift goes pop and you should have the cash for what you really want then a :)
