Cheap old cars
My current car is pretty much dead. I was thinking maybe I would look into getting a cheap car to get myself to work and back. Mostly, I want something that will run for a year, and hopefully in that time I will be able to get a nice car (I'm trying for the Coast Guard, and I don't want to sink money into a car till I get out of OCS next year). What I am wondering is, am I foolish for hoping for a car in somewhere in the 800-1500 dollar range that will run fairly reliably for a year?
I'm thinking I will have better luck with something like a Honda, Toyota or Saturn.
Is it possible to find the type of car I am looking for, for the amount of money I am looking to spend?
What should I check out on these cars to make sure they aren't going to fall apart in a month?
Am I right in thinking I will have better luck with a Honda, Toyota or Saturn?
Thank for the time everyone.
