Hi everyone, I would like to ask you for your advice about my 2000 VW Passat which has very low mileage (45,000 miles) and has routinely been maintained at recommended time/mileage points. Due to the age of the car, I am needing to replace various parts that age and northeast weather conditions have affected (such as brakes, various rubber parts that have cracked, and most recently the anti-lock brake system computer is failing). At what point should I consider buying a new car vs. continuing with repairs to keep this car up? With such low mileage, does my car have more years left in its life then if it had much higher mileage? If my car still has several good years left, then I can justify putting money into these repairs. Do you think it is worth it? I would really appreciate any advice you all might have. Thanks a lot!
