Future classic or money pit?
Discussion
I have a 2004 Impreza WRX wagon with 70 000 miles.
2/3 of the last MOTs have been expensive and together have come close to the value of the car.
My question is, do I keep getting it repaired ( mostly rust underneath) , in the hope it will gain in value , or do I cut my losses and scrap it the next time the MOT costs me more than £500?
I know it won’t be a 22B , but prices seem to be rising slightly £4-5k as opposed to £3k 4 or 5 years ago.
Wagons are rarer than saloons but are they wanted?

I'm looking at importing a blob wagon wrx. They're incredibly clean and untouched underneath. Could always scrap it or sell towards a new import.
My wife has Mini Countryman D and with home working it’s difficult to justify having two cars. She thinks the Mini is wonderful and she be reluctant to sell that.One plan I have in mind is selling both and getting a JCW Mini Countryman. Yet to drive one but on paper the performance is about the same as my Subaru.
Any thoughts anyone?
