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.

On the flip side you have the allure of going from one £500 banger to the next, lol. Many of my mates loved doing it, occasionally ending up with something that went for years.

Used to buy MOT failures and fix them then sell them or buy and sell cars that I wanted to try.
