When do you look for a new car

[obi_waynne]

What is the point you decide to get a new car?

For some people it's when it reaches a certain mileage, for others it's when it starts to get unreliable or expensive to run and some people just change cars every set number of years.

Is it cheaper to hang on to a newish car for 15 years or buy 5 older cars every few years?

when bigger problems start to arise.
im not bothered about milage as the car may have low miles but it could have been used to go a couple of miles every day. where as one with 100k on it could have spend 90k of that cruising on the motorway.
generally i start to look around 100k see whats about
