New or old

Hello I've had my current bike for about 24 years, it's a mens bike with a steel frame which I love very much, it has sentimemtal value to me as it arrived when I started my first full time job but the brakes are a bit dodgy and the gears , there are 15 on 3 dogs, don't always work, the middle cog works just fine but I can't get it in the bottom cog and sometimes it won't change to the top one, I had it serviced at Halfords last summer, it is a mountain bike but I bad hybrid tyres put on it for commuting, it's a 8 mile round ride and 2.5mile of it is a steady incline, I'm toying with the idea of a new bike but love my old one so can't decide wether to spend the money getting it serviced again or if it's even worth servicing it, I did the gold ine a Halfords last August.
so what do people suggest, new bike or service the much loved one
