    I bought a 2003 Mk1 Ford Focus for just £800 in 2015 and I still have it now, for the majority of the time I've had the car for it's been really reliable, and most of the fixes that have been done on it haven't been that expensive it all. So it's totally possible to get an estate for under £1000 and for it to not be a money pit.

    You just need to do some research on what to look out for when buying a vehicle and find out what are the most reliable 2nd hand models.

    Have a natter with ChatGPT about it, John, I find it can really help with stuff like this.
