<prompt> Human: So my mom drives about 1,000 miles a year. Im looking into getting her a reliable car in the 8,000 to 12,000 that with the mileage she drives has a chance of increasing in value over the next 5 or 10 years. It needs to be all wheel drive we live in Massachusetts with the crazy winters. Other then that its open car hunting. I am willing to drive outside the salt belt if I need to. South Carolina or lower. Any suggestions? Or should I just assume the car is going to lose value with age regardless of mileage?  <response>: Only extremely rare and antique cars have a chance of increasing in value. Nothing that you would want to drive every day, and nothing in that price range.At 1000 miles a year, are you sure she cant get by with just taxi Uber Zipcar? Dont forget to factor in the annual cost of insurance, maintenance, inspections, parking, registration fees, etc.
