Is it worth selling the 1*2's anymore?

[Fletcher]

I have a thing about a buying another BG 182 at the mo, get a guddun for 3k! Madness, I paid near 9k for a 55 plate in 2007!!

I didn't think you liked your old BG 182?

If you need the money then yes. If you don't then keep it.

I paid more than what 182's are going for for mine. But it was minty mint and I know I'm probably never going to sell it so to me it is irrelevant.

30 month to payback however the cars worth more and insurance and tax should be less. It all adds up

The car wont be worth as much in 30 months though and thats assuming you've had no problems with it. Diesel parts arent cheap!

I have just bought a DCI 65 - 53 plate, black, 89,000 miles £1500.

I am sad and before buying it I did a spreadsheet, these are the basics from it, based on 10,000 miles per year, 30mpg for the 182 and 60mpg for the DCI.

I didn't include and other costs as they will no doubt be similar for the two, probably a bit cheaper on the DCI (smaller tyres, etc.)

You sound too like me for my own liking

Your stats speak the truth!
