When should I sell?
As we do 25,000 miles each year, a couple of years ago we bought a 5 year old Citroen C4 diesel for £5000 with 61,000 miles on the clock.
Now, after almost 50,000 miles of pretty much trouble-free motoring and an easy 55mpg, I'm wondering whether we should keep the C4 going until it breaks, or replace it with a newer model?

You've been quite lucky, but the car isn't worth much so it's a choice between continuing with it until something goes so expensively wrong it isn't worth repairing, or p/x ing now for a newer car.
