Looking to trade in my 07 SE with 124,000 on the clock and I am wondering what I might get offered.
Betty has served us well for 8 years and 100,000 Miles with just the AC compressor replacement as the costliest failure, other than that it has just been servicing and tyres.
But with a year of long trips coming up I think we need to update - looking at Santa Fe from Hyundai.

If it has served you well for 100,000 miles I would keep up the regular service drive it into the ground as a trader will give you very little money for a 10yr old car, far better things in life to enjoy your cash on other than keeping the stealers in business

When I buy a second hand vehicle, like a Land Rover, I write-off that out lay.

After 'tricking' the vehicle up, I use it for a couple of years and then sell it.

My 'sold' vehicles do tend end in Romania, Poland and one went to Slovakia.

It doesn't seem to make any odds that they are right-hand drive.

I don't expect to make money out of cars, just enjoy them !
