Transport

We replaced one of our cars in 2013, but the other car is over 9 years old, and needs replacing as well. A study was made about the convenience for NOT of leasing or buying cars for the particular use we have. After reviewing our yearly car expenses, it is very clear that it is better to buy a car. Several offers were obtained from local car dealers, and in the end based on price, motor power and consumption, it was decided to go for a FORD focus. Our old car is being sold as part of the deal, but we very recently had a major failure of the car just before this part of the deal was completed. It seems that the repair is more expensive than the money we were going to receive for the old car, and we likely will end up with buying the new car and selling the old car as scrap metal, i.e., at a significantly lower price than foreseen.
