January 10th, 2019 09:12 AM #1Good day fellow tsikoters! I have a dilemma and I hope to shed light on it based on your respective opinions.
I currently own a 2015 Subaru XV and it has been performing really well, no problems at all. Odemeter reads at 22k which is a bit low since I’m using it exclusively from home to office (to & from).
Recently, I got a job offer which will include a company car (mine after 5 years) and covers gas, insurance & maintenance.
The timing can’t be any better as I’m currently sourcing for a second car that my wife can use to take my 4 year old kid to school.
I’m currently looking at the Suzuki Celerio CVT as a good alternative (easy to drive, FC & cheap). However, with the impending acceptance of the job offer I’m now torn. Should I retain my current ride so my wife can use it? Or should I sell it & buy the Celerio?
My hesitation is keeping the XV is due to it’s high maintenance cost, almost 4 years old & a 2.0 engine, awd, which is not as fuel efficient as the smaller cars.
So, should I keep the old one or buy a newer, cheaper one?
Your expert advices are very much appreciated! Thanks in advance!
