Keep the punto, wait for something else to come along or accept the corolla?

I have been having a few problems with my punto and with the financial situation im in at the minute these repairs really aren't helping my wallet. I had a new clutch fitted for it two days ago (59 quid altogether including fitting). Whilst my mate that did it for me told me i needed two new front shock absorbers (i know that anyway), the exhaust is missing a bracket and the cat is broke causing a bad noise when driving it and failing mot emissions test etc, i got in the car today to go to work and there was a terrible scraping noise coming from the back and the car felt like it was dragging. So my friends looked at it again when i was at work and he discovered one of my rear brakes has fell to peices. So thats gonna be 60 quid plus fitting to have that brake fixed which i am gonna struggle to afford.

So i listed my car on swapz.co.uk and said i wanted to trade for an auto (i wanna switch to autos now after all the problems with clutches ive had) and someone had offered me a 1997 1.4 16v Toyota Corolla Auto



I'm not sure weather i should just keep my punto, accept the corolla or wait and see it someone will offer me something else on swapz...

jap Auto boxes are not very good

play the waiting game
