Help with a car decision?

I currently own a 2009 VW Jetta with a 2.5L 5 cylinder engine. It currently has 140,000 miles and it's pure highway miles.
I recently had a problem with it with an intake air system leak and had to replace the ignition coils, the spark plugs because it came up with those codes. But the issue wasn't related with the ignition coils or spark plugs at all! It was the PCV valve diaphragm and another gasket inside the valve cover. Point being I'm afraid of having to deal with any bigger issues on a German car. Luckily a family friend who is a mechanic fixed it for 95 bucks. The car runs as good as new even when the ignition coils or spark plugs weren't needing to be replaced but now they are new too. I wanted to get an opinion on wether or not it's best to sell it (in very good condition, engine is clean and has been well maintained with its oil) and buy another car where the parts won't be as expensive as a German vehicle. I was thinking in the lines of a Honda Toyota or Nissan, but what about a ford or Chevy sedan? I'm into sedans currently because I always have family with me and I use it as a daily driver. What advice would you guys and gals be able to share with me about my current situation? Should I wait and save up money and then sell the car? Or keep the car meantime since it's running great again.

Sell it if you have doubts. Get a new Civic.

No save your money. As long as you don't have any very expensive repairs. $95 is nothing compared to buying a new car and paying nearly $1500 a year for insurance. If the repair is over $1000 then it might be a good idea to get rid of it. If it is having engine or transmission problems then yes i do recommend getting rid of it. But if the engine runs smooth and transmission shifts smoothly. Save your money for know.

I'll tell you like this: Why not just go ahead and sell it before something else goes wrong on it? Its a Volkswagen. Sell it, disclose everything that you think may go wrong with it, and then be done with it.

You could get $4000 with it if you have all the hupcaps and you arent missing doorhandles and your paint isn't faded too badly. $4000 could get you a 2002 Toyota that is in pretty decent shape and is under 140000 miles. Thats good for a Toyota because those things will run 270000 miles if well maintained.
