RW> AB>     I have to find a "very affordable" used car for a family
RW> AB> member (somewhere between US$ 1,000 and 2,500?)  Ideally an old
RW> AB> hatchback or perhaps a subcompact sedan.  At this price point I
RW> AB> realise that whatever he buys should be considered a temporary
RW> AB> vehicle but if it lasts him a year or two, that would really help him
RW> AB> out of a difficult spot.

RW>My advice would be to go to a supermarket or a dedicated book store and
RW>find a copy of an automotive consumer's report. Also find a copy of "Blue
RW>Book" automotive values. Some cars are created equal and others are bad
RW>news. You'll get the idea once you read blue book values.

Just checked my 2013 CR Buyers guide.

Basicly look for a Toyota or a Honda and AVOID a GM or Chrylser and
most other Foreigh Cars
