Fix or sell up car and sell as junk?

Posted at: 2015-01-07 
Those years of just about every car- You won't get back half of what you spend to fix things. The only way it would be worthwhile is if you planned on driving it for years yourself.

Sell up?

Is this new lingo?

Sell it to somebody with lots of energy.

It's not junk, but it needs some TLC, maybe by a young mechanic.

Fix

junk. No market value. You will get $ 500 tops to tow away to the yard..

scrap it

I have a 97 Buick Century Limited with all the bells and whistles (leather and dual power seats, heated mirrors, AM/FM CD/cassette radio, etc. It has 107, XXX miles (mostly highway). However a few things need to be fixed/replaced. The A/C needs recharged. It needs new tires. The power steering failed (again). The sway bar is weak. The blinker needs fixed. There's some kind of rattle when going over bumps. The battery is dead. The power mirrors don't work and the climate control display doesn't work. Is this car worth fixing and selling or should I just junk it?
