I’d agree, keep it. I had to change mine at bery short notice and paid too much (£1300) but needed a replacement car the same day (not ideal) and the one I picked up is well spec’d and had a great history apart from the last 2 years. I had to spend around £500 as well, although that was getting it to how I wanted it, probably fixing the satnav and putting a towbar on won’t be important to all. All seems bullet proof now and it has (for us) the really valuable ‘family pack’ which I’ll now struggle to be without when this one needs changing.
Worst job I’d say was changing the intercooler, but that one had the most gains.
All work, apart from welding a broken exhaust mount, has been undertaken be myself.

Anyway happy Christmas!
