Decision making is not my strong point.

helps!

so heres my dilema. My Mazda requires new handbrake-brakes work fine, but handbrake wont hold on steep hills. Anyhoo, im also looking to buy another used Mazda or Ford. So far, I havent bought the new handbrake cable for the MX6, thats approx £70 for all three parts, and will probably cost £100 to fit, and I need the car sorted for my holiday next weekend. Im also hoping to go look at a Mazda 323f V6 tomorrow night or Saturday morning, if its worth it, ill buy it £694 plus £112 tax.

the issue is-do I fix the Mazda MX6 but stuggle to get the parts in time and find a garage plus obviously the cost of nearly £300 OR do I buy the Mazda 323 that comes with 12 months mot and seems nice (but has 111k miles and no idea if cambelts been done)

??

i am currently looking for a new used car anyway, and want a Mazda 323f ZXI, so it makes some sense to buy the car before holiday, and use holiday as a run in period...
