I recently purchased a 93 240 (to replace the one I totalled in the snow-now a parts car), as I wanted a car with fewer miles, less rust, ABS, AC, etc.

I still have my 89 240 with 233K miles. It has some rust on the underside, and some quirks like an occassionally rough idle and no AC, but is in generally good condition, I've put a fair bit of effort into keeping it looking good and running well. I've owned the car for 6 years now, it was my first car that I actually owned, and I'm rather attached to it.

I dont actually need a second car, but on the other hand, I doubt I could sell it for much, considering the mileage, and it costs me less than 300 a year to insure and register. I'm a 25 year old grad student, so I dont have a lot of money, but I could afford to keep it.

What would you do? Keep it cos you love it even though you dont need it, or go ahead and sell it?
