It's an interesting dilemma. I tend to prefer 'the devil I know'. Some of the stories about new cars just out of warranty needing large wads of cash to fix them are worrying. Coupled with eye-watering rates of depreciation on new cars, and there's a lot to be said for biting the bullet and spending £2-£3k on the car you already own, especially considering the sentimental value. However, the increasing pressure to 'go electric' has definitely muddied the waters. If I was in London, I'd probably go electric/bike/public transport. Here in Cornwall, I can wait another year or two unless they move the goalposts again. Good luck with your deliberations.
