Go with the new or stay with the old?

It's true that prices may rise in the future but it's all relative in that you may have a more valuable low mileage car however, to change to another lower mileage car will still cost you money! I think the price difference tona car with 30k miles less will always stay the same.

That silver grey with red leather has been for sale for over a year.

Simply because it missed its run in service.

I test drove the silver one a while back. During the test drive all the electronics went crazy, dashboard completely lit up with warning lights. That coupled with the missed running in service was enough to put me off.

If it makes you happy, correct your mileage every year prior to mot. Yeah it’s naughty but hey it’s your car and she will never age (come on man it happens on a regular basis but people keep stum)

cant respect this comment just because it happens, doesnt make it acceptable.

I totally agree it’s not acceptable.
Personally I respect every factual comment anyone makes. As the model is fast approaching the classic car bracket, knowledge is the key my friend :wink:

You know I make a point of playing it by the book.
At least it gets future owners thinking when they go view cars :wink:

Thing is Dan, I think you are right - whilst we joke here, I can imagine there are those around for whom this is normal practice

Your on a level Si and know me first hand.
You can Recall the excitement when we went to view No.474 roadster. I went in hard on that car!! Rolled around on the floor in my proper clothes.
Turned out to be a knacker!

Moral of the story is, anyone can have their pants pulled down if they live in a bubble and got their blinkers on.

Very true Dan and I appreciated it because at that stage, I was probably one of those who would have had his pants pulled down!

Coming back to the OP's original question, I say keep a giod car that you know - and enjoy it.

Makes no sense. I commute 50 miles / day in mine. Bought with 83k miles on the clock, just ticked the 120000 mark this week.

I would not trade it for another one with half the miles if you asked me. Just drive it, use the 5 G's to go on a massive european roadtrip like I did a couple of years ago (done 5k miles in one summer alone), forget about the number on the odometer and be happy.

That's my dream summer holiday.... Aaaaah, the open air freedom....

Oh, wait I need to go help with homework... I'll be back
