Would you drive around in a 12 year old car?

Ok so i had a car lol & sold it,one cos i hated it & secondly the person who bought it from me offered me too much to refuse. I have looked for another but the cars were eithr way over my price range,milage too high or i had to dip into the money for other things.I was starting to think that i would not be getting one till after christmas..

That is until my ex came up to see my daughter & mentioned that his dad was giving him his audi..yes giving him it!!!..nice car & only a few years old.
I asked him what he was doing with his car.He said his GF will be putting it on the council website for £300.Now this car is a N Reg which makes it about 12 + years old....
The only people who have owned it were my ex hubbys mum,his GF & now him.It only has 61,000 odd miles on the clock which for a car that age is pretty dam cool.The car itself is in good condition & of course insurance will be cheap,plus its the right size for me,nippy & loud lol.Its a wee peugeot 106 ..kinda bright green in color. Andy said its just went through its MOT & has 8 months road tax...sound huh..That will be do me jist braw like..what ya hink....toot toot
He said he will take £250 fur it..that leaves me plenty money left over & i can get a full years insurance paid too!!

So again would you drive around in an older car or do you prefer newer ones?
