Sounds worse than it is when the car is cheap. Chucking it and buying another one of the same is just like starting the whole defect lottery from square one.
Exactly. If you've had the car a few years then you'll have a good idea of the faults and repair history. Finding a 2nd hand car with an honest seller and decent service/repair history can be difficult.
Seems familiar... I just paid a bill for new rear suspension and a few other bits that was ~50% of my car's value.
