I am thinking of seeing if I can find someone who wants to do a swap. I am just looking for some input really. I have had my car for almost 2 years and spent a small fortune on her and I do love her - BUT I am facing a loss of income in the next month (youngest son turns 19 and the child support stops) so I am looking at ways to keep costs down to a minimum and one way would be a car with a smaller engine, lower insurance, tax and running costs.
I have also always wanted a convertible or at the very least something with a skyroof, I know a convertible wont bring my insurance down but a smaller engine will. I am kind of going back forth with this at the moment because I really do love this car but I know I could be running a car for much less.
In the past I have had an old Panda, an Uno and Punto, this is actually the biggest engine I have had, so just wondering what you guys think? Would it be better to just sell her and look for something else? I am already looking for a Cinq or Seicento for my sons wife and I dont know a thing about buying cars so I kind of feel like 'better the devil I know'. I have replaced just about everything on mine whereas a different car will be unknown......
