Giles troubles

We took Giles (our car) to the mechanic after it overheated on me the other night. The mechanic rang today and told me we that Giles needs a new radiator and that it might cost around $1000. I asked how the rest of the engine is, to know if it is worth fixing. He says he can’t really tell me until the radiator is fixed. Now I have to decide do I spend the money on a car that it probably not worth much more than that at the risk of finding out afterwards I am going to have spend another load of cash to fix something else or do we start thinking about buying a new car. I love Giles and would spend the money (especially as I just spent $500 on registration) if I knew this would be only problem but if it turns out that he is actually on his last legs all over then it will be a total waster. Decisions like this make me very stressed.
