What sort of car should I buy for my first car? I don't want to spend too much on it.

'89 Magna.

EDIT: Check the other threads in this car sub-forum. There is one that discusses first cars, funnily enough, it's called 'first cars'.

EDIT2: Ability to research is a must if you're looking at uni. Here.

agree.. or at least use someone elses shitty car for like the first week

i got into a minor crash first week of having my p's in a 40k car, lucky the bill wasnt too bad but yeah, its easy to make some nervous mistakes and u dont want to be doing them in an expensive car unless u can afford it

Get a box on wheels. Drive it for a year or two, throw it out and buy a decent car.

You'l be learning to drive during the first year anyway. Learners experience is nothing like driving on the road by yourself (or with a group of mates distracting you).
