Waste of money

I bought a van thinking I would go back into landscaping

It was a lot of money, and now I need to sell it as landscaping isn’t going to work out

Just as I try and sell it the Powertrain light has come on and it has lost power. The engine mounts are displaced, and need replacement

The sliding door mechanism is also broken

I am flipping out right now

Looking at what I can see on Google, I am going to have to spend roughly £2000 to fix it, and it has dropped another £1000 in less than 6 months value

That means I potentially wasted £3000 on this stupid purchase.

All that time I sat at the desk saving money for my future benefit has been thrown away because of my stupid impulsive decisions.

I am pretty upset.

Cars are rarely a good investment.

Cut your losses and move on.

It sounds painful, but at least you were trying something. You deserve credit for that.

Why a van and not a truck? You could fix it and still do it.

Maybe keep the van and do some camping?

Fix the van, keep it, put a mattress in it and do some adventures.

Then after if you still want to sell atleast you will of got enjoyment out of it
