Keep it?

Post by gherman »

I have a 2000 S40 that is in great shape (83K miles). I just did a bunch of work on it (tires, battery, steering arm, oil seal, motor mount timing belt, cam sensor). I have an opportunity to buy a new Honda Civic at a rediculously low price, but I really like the S40. Should I keep it or get the Honda (the resale value on old S40's isn't high)? How long have your's lasted?
