I have an 09 vw rabbit that we are selling. It's a joy to drive. However it's not the easiest to work on. Some jobs on it make me cringe thinking I may have to do them at some point. I expect to get around $3500 for it.
I plan on taking that money and buying a 4 door car.
My only requirements are 4 doors, manual transmission and parts that are easy and plentiful to get. This car will be doing a 5 hour round trip once a month sometimes twice a month. So parts availability if something were to happen is important.
I'd love to own a Honda but they hold there value so well. Is it worth spending 3500 for a Honda with 150,000 miles give or take?
What are some cars I should look into? I want something that can last a long while and be reliable.
We were going to buy a new van or small SUV but I just couldn't bring myself to sign up for a higher car payment and for a longer amount of time. I look forward to hearing suggestions and input from everyone.
