I have a 04 Astra, which I bought for just under €22,000 last May.
The car is costing me a fortune in petrol, so now I'm thinking of going back down to a lower sized car. The Opel dealer says this is a mistake because it's awful to downgrade and it would end up costing me money.
VW dealer says that a new polo is €17,000, but wants €1500 with my car, for a new polo! That means I lost €6500 in one year! I was thinking of buying a 05 slightly used polo, but my dad went insane and said I'd be taking someone elses sh*t!
What should I do. In my mind I think I should get a smaller car, but in my heart I can't justify paying for a crappier car, only for it to drop in price as soon as I drive out the gate again.
