Should I stick with my rusty Duster?

I have a Duster 4x4 which will come to the end of its PCP in September, unfortunately it is one of the earlier Indian made models and it has been recalled once for work to the bodywork. Rust has now appeared in two places and it is due to go for repair shortly.

My dilemma is should I swap it for another Duster 4x4 or go for another make {the part exchange I have been offered against new cars would not pay off the PCP].

If I am forced to stick with the Duster 4x4 should I go for another diesel or switch to the petrol model, I do 15k miles a year, primarily in shorter [upto 30 mile] journeys?

Switch to the new 1.2 litre TC2 125. It's excellent, as well as cheaper than a new diesel 4x4: www.honestjohn.co.uk/road-tests/dacia/dacia-duster.../
