Thinking of selling my beloved Xantia HDi

Post by Philip1927 »

Owned since 2009, just 1 previous owner. 1999 model.
Much loved car, real workhouse and so comfortable.
Unfortunately starting to show it's age 235k miles, diesel engine sound as a bell but few things going wrong now and really not sure that I have the money or energy to get things right.
Steering heavy...suspect pump
Airbag light coming on
Mgt light comes on when going uphill...suspect sensor
Just to mention a few.
Is it worth me getting stuff done or should I sell for spares or repairs. Advice would be appreciated.
