So, my current car is okay - an automatic petrol family car - I don't like driving it. It is totally fine, no issues, still has 3 years left on the manufacturer warranty, but I just don't enjoy driving it! It feels heavy and slow to accelerate. I really want a smaller electric runaround (electric corsa) and can sell my petrol car for an electric corsa of similar age for the same price.
It's not one brand vs another, but it's whether ibu to be self-indulgent, with the risk of getting a car that may go wrong because it wouldn't have the equivalent warranty... but then an EV doesn't have an engine to go wrong, does it? And will have a remaining 4 year battery guarantee.
Sensible me says no, keep the family car.
Fun me says yes, sell the family car and get the little, electric run-around that you want!
Money is no issue here (cash buyer as new purchase = price of selling old car), but I wouldn't usually get rid of a car just because I fancied a different one. I just wonder if it's too 'irresponsible' to sell a perfectly working car still with manufacturer warranty for a new-to-me car, just because I want one?!
