Going abroad for two years - what should I do with my Nissan Qashqai?
My daughter has a one year old Qashqai petrol 1.6 bought from new.
She is going abroad to work for two years and can't take the car.
What is her best option?
Sell the car and take the loss of the first years depreciation?
Store at my house (I have the space in a car port)? I could give it a spin periodically?
Lend to her sister, but how much does the sister pay?
She will return in two years time and need a car.

Unless the car will be used regularly, sell it now and replace when she gets back. What the sister will pay depends on what she will agree to, not the realistic cost of hiring the car for two years.
