I think I would be stupid selling her really, hand on heart she has been the best car I have ever owned and the most reliable and that is no lie. I have owned 30+ cars and the 75 has been the most reliable by far apart from my 1982 Ford LS Capri.
I suppose I could just bite the bullet and keep her on the road and pay the costs until a big repair bill does come in on her, then it will be a sad day.

i will be honest with you mate i have 2 cars, my 75 and my qashqai and i always use my qashqai but every couple of days i jump in the 75 and nip upto my local shop in it.
plus its nice to know i always have a back up car if one breaks down, last month my qashqai broke down and i used the 75 for 3 days and then when i got my qashqai back i parked my 75 up.
its like someone as said these cars will be future classics, i think the true classic age of a car is 15 years so you only have 4 more years to wait till your 75 is a classic.
my 75 is 11 years old and is great condition with only 72k and many mods and its only worth £700 if i sell it, its like i said you may as well keep yours as you will lose a car you love and gain little money in return
