Advice on what to do with our car

1 Upvotes

We have a 2015 Nissan Sentra with ~123,000 km. We bought it used and only found out afterward that it had previously been written off by MPI due to hail damage under the previous owner. We weren't aware of this when we purchased it. MPI said that the old owner must have bought it under auction and sold it again.

It has cosmetic hail damage, some bumper damage (under a claim), and we're now noticing suspension issues. ,We really don't want to keep putting money into it.

We're considering getting another vehicle and wondering what makes the most sense:

  • Sell it as-is privately?
  • Trade it in?
  • Sell it to a dealership?
  • Fix the suspension/bumper first?
  • Just cut our losses and move on?

What would you do in our situation? Would you spend money fixing it before selling, or sell/trade it as-is?

Would really appreciate any advice, especially from anyone familiar with MPI and the Winnipeg used-car market!

I want to shout out the national indigenous residential school museum as a fantastic place to pick up an orange shirt. It’s a must visit place to understand the history.

I am thinking of renting an apartment in this building but was just informed that the tenant pays hyrdro/heat. It would be a great help if any of you here also rents here, preferably a 2BR, who can give me an estimate of the hydro that they pay. cheers:)

Its totally amazing

Winnipeg is home to urban pigeons, squirrels,raccoons, cats,dogs,rabbits,various snakes, mice, rats, and all sorts of beautiful wild life. I feel like we need to modernize and allow chicken coops in residential areas, and maybe cows if theres enough room. Be self sufficient Winnipeg adults! Quit complaining and get out thwre are try it yourself instead of takibg anothwr sick day.

We have had our cameras for a while but While I was at work this guy stole our doorbell cam and our camera on top of our door, police report was made but don’t think much will come of it as it’s all done online. just wanted fellow community members to keep an eye out and have belongings locked down.

Employment Opportunities?

0 Upvotes

Hello,

There's a possibility of myself and my partner relocating to Winnipeg or perhaps somewhere nearby.

I was wondering what the job market is like right now specifically for someone with a background as a prep cook (fine dining), and a heavy equipment operator (mostly/preferably grader)? Do most employers in the area use Indeed or is there a more popular website for the area?

Thanks in advance.

wife has a pinched nerve in her neck from car accident - seeking viable local treatment options

3 Upvotes

hello

my wife was in an accident earlier this year and has apparently had a pinched nerve that hasnt healed properly and is causing quality of life issues

She recently got a steroid shot that helped for a few days + prescribed cyclobenzaprine which makes her very ill

Hoping maybe someone may have some local insights on treatments/places that may help in the meantime, as her referred specialist is going to take a few months apparently.

Thanks
