Kelly’s Blue Book (kbb.com) would help you find info about the average cost of a particular car you are looking for. Car facts would let you know about the history of the car provided that you have the VIN number.

look around your area most dealerships have used cars. before you buy one do a carfax report on it that will tell you things the dealer wont such as if the car has ever been in an accident. when you go to look at a car take a friend or family member with you someone who knows about cars. also check the classifieds to see if anyone around you is selling somthing you might be interested in. you should be able to get a small used sedan for under 10,000. i would suggest a foreign car just because they are cheaper and extremly good on milage.

your local newspapers website will show the local ads. Buy from a private party. Try to find a car from the suburbs and be sure to take it to a mechanic to have it checked out before you buy.

The only way of trying to "plan ahead" for the possible disaster is to buy an Extended Warranty when you buy the vehicle. Another is to buy from a New Car Dealer’s used lot.
