I had decided a while ago that I wanted to sell my car rather than continuind to spend money on it, but after trying to sell it for a while and realizing it was worth less than half what I paid for it even with how much nicer shape its in now, I decided to keep it and keep fixing some of the problems, but I am beginning to think that was the wrong choice.

Here is a list of all the annoying things wrong with it:

Odometer, radio, heater fan, and a/c all don't work, and are outside of my ability to fix, and I don't currently make enough money to pay to have someone else do it.

Central locking system failed beyond my ability to fix today

Loud pop from the front suspension while turning or braking that I can't diagnose, I'm at the point of throwing $500+ at it just guessing what might be the problem, or ignoring it.

Again just today (since it was hot today), the temp gauge steadily climbs anytime I sit at a stoplight for more than a minute or two.

Less serious problems, but it also has intermittent rough idle problems, and about once a week it will take nearly a minute to shut off when you turn the key off, but all the rest of the time it shuts off right away.

It could use CV boots and a new differential mount at some point too, but that will be ok a while longer.

I have done lots of work on it other than the stuff I mentioned, and other than that it doesn't really have any other big problems, the body and interior are still pretty nice, etc. I just put in a new drivers seat with an unripped cover and good springs, rebuilt the throttle linkage and adjusted the valves, replaced the front breake pads, calipers and rotors, etc (and quite a bit more in the 4 years i have had it. But, I can't fix any of the things I listed, and it is really making me dislike the car to get so frustrated and angry every time I want to fix something but I can't. But, scrapping it and spending $6k+ that I can't really afford on a newer used car doesn't sound like that great of an idea either.
