I want to get a winter/school beater next year. I want something that is cheap to run small and reliable. I also want it to cost around $2k (give or take)
Now I would really like another Toyota but they have very high resale, I can't get much for $2k. But for $2k I have seen some nice clean say 1996-97 100k Saturns. Their is a clean green coupe for sale down the street from me. Are Saturns cheap to run?
I would probably keep it for 5 years max probably more like 3-4. I don't think I will put more then 40k on it since I will on drive it November through early April.
I am thinking $2k for the car and $500 to bring all the maintaince up to speed and for unexpected problems.
Any other ideas? I don't care what the car is like just that it is fwd for the snow and has heat and a radio. Newer is better I don't want to fix this one I have plenty of that with the SDL!
