Just finished New Blood - SPOILERS

I started watching Dexter for the first time earlier this year. I watched all 8 seasons of the original show, then took a short break before starting New Blood. I was absolutely hooked on seasons 1-4 of Dexter, but seasons 5-8 I found to be hit and miss. (I think its just the standard for shows of that era - they don't know when to stop and keep pushing out more seasons for as long as they can).

However, I REALLY enjoyed New Blood - mianly because of the eerie setting and I think the addition of more licensed music helped too - but I also thought it wrapped up the story nicely. I was really happy with the ending because I had completely stopped rooting for Dexter right around season 5 of the original show and after La Guerta's death I was completely done with rooting for him at all.

I read somewhere that New Blood was always supposed to be a limited 10 episode series, and that the only reason "Resurrection" happened was because of the amazing fan repsonse to "New Blood". So that's why I'm torn on starting "Resurrection" - are they just milking the shit out of it again and refusing to stop making hay when the sun's shining? Or is it actually worth the watch. It has insane ratings, like, Trinity Killer Season ratings. But I just think the story is done.

What should I do?

Keep/Sell 2016 GTD 144,000 Miles

I've been driving a 2016 GTD hatchback for almost 5 years now. I bought it with 66,000 miles on it and for the first 3-4 years I was pretty fortunate in terms of repairs. However, in the past 12 months I have been racking up the mechanic bills.

-Oil seal

-timing belt

-clutch and fly wheel

-reconditioned turbo

-DPF regen

-new expansion tank

-heater core replaced

All of these things plus standard wear and tear repairs (Few new tyres, pads, bearings)

The standard selling price with my mileage isn't great so, I'm sort of hoping that with all of that work completed that the nightmare must be coming to an end and I should have some stress free driving for another year or so at least. Thoughts?
