Which car should I get rid off?

Heya Scotty. I'm sure you're pretty busy and probably won't read this but I want to try, just for fun. See, I recently got a "new" daily driver because my dad wanted a new car so I bought his old one. The problem is, now I should probably sell one of my old ones to get some spending money. I have two cars myself, one 2006 Volkswagen Transporter van, and one 1991 Volvo 240 sedan that I've had for ages. The VW has around 200 000 miles and the Volvo is pushing 300. Which one would it make sense to sell in your opinion?
Full disclosure, I live in Norway and so getting parts for either is easy and relatively cheap.
Both have pretty much the same issues, they're old, a little rusty and needs a little TLC.
Both run well, but I am not in a profession where I need a van too often, and the sedan also doesn't really have a practical use it does better than my new station wagon.
Anyway, if you find the time, I would be happy to hear your opinion. Thanks!

I would be inclided to keep the Volvo, especially considering your geographic region.

But at the end, it's your personal choice.

Which one would you like to keep?


That's kind of what I need help deciding. I love my ancient Volvo and it is an immortal brick, but I've also had it for ages and it has become sort of superfluous. The Volkswagen I don't really need, but it has AWD, can pull heavy trailers and I might want to build a "sort of" camper from it.


Perhaps @dan has some experience with them


Eh I'd keep both. They're probably not worth much anyway and it really depends only on what OP prefers to keep.


They are each worth around 3000-3500 usd in market value around here in the shape they're in.
