As some of you may know hubby has been off work now for close to 7 weeks with Gall bladder problems, he has had a 'procedure' to cure some of the pain , but has been on a downer ever since , and is now on anti depressants (never a good thing when you're a HGV driver) - as a consequence of this we have decided to do a role swap, and I go to work and he stays at home to care for our ASD son before and after nursery (and also the 2 girls when they come back from school)....RIGHT - now to the main point, I am hoping to get into Home care...ie I go and check on people in their own homes - help them dress / wash etc - and repeat the process at night to get them into bed..Now at the moment the only vehicle we have is the Disco....so 15-20mpg around town is going to do us no favours what so ever!
So i was wondering is it worth selling it as it is (J plate 3 door 200Tdi - usual suspects, but has T+T for about 4 or 5 months) OR is it worth considering breaking it down? reason I ask is that we need another vehicle preferably before we do anything to the disco - but then that means if we break it we have NO off road parking , and with the 'little darlings' in our street this is never a good plan!
Sensible advice, and even offers will be accepted..and also if anyone has a 'family' car that may be for sale then let me know
Thanks for reading this..
