I have a dilemma :(

I now have the vectra and black cinq on the road. I have been offered a few hundred quid for my black one. Do i sell her? or keep her?

pros -
no insurance each month, no upkeep costs, wont need to find money for the tax is due soon,

cons - if the vec goes tits up il be carless :(



n burples a toy before you say it!

my mate said - "your only one person, you dont need three".
But I'm really undecidedil need to pay the transfer of the plate, but the new buyer says i can keep the wheels if i want.

HELP!
 
It's a tough call. Personally I'd keep it, I think you'd miss not having a Cinq as a daily driver and I'd be inclined not to put daily drive miles onto the Vec. It'll be so much more expensive to fuel on a daily basis not to mention regular servicing costs will probably be extortionate in comparison. Whereas if you only use the Vec for long distance driving and towing Burple you shouldn't have to service it so often.

hmm yeah i see what you mean :(
 
For a second then when reading the title, i thought you was going to sell your other cinq... :D

i say sell it, why need three cars... a vec, cinq and a bike is all that's needed.. :)
 
erm replace...the 3rd car with a male

probably say sell (from a sensible pov) from non sensible keep it, also the serviceing costs on the vec aas said above will be high(er)

i did have, 2 years ago. :)


I think it will be more of a hassle than its worth to lose the black one, for just a couple of hundred , plus when i take into account the regi transfer, ins cancellation etc. and that fact shes not cosing me very much just now. :(

try to see if you can get more for it, for a couple of hundred it's not worth selling it as you say.. best to keep it, do it up and sell it for more... (y)
