When the time comes for you to buy your first car you will have to take a few things into consideration. Do you have the cash to pay for the whole amount of your first car or do you have to finance the car? If you have the cash then you have several options.
After this the next thing you need to look at is your budget. How much of a first car can you afford to buy? You must consider the cost of insurance and general up-keep and the yearly licensing of your vehicle. The cost of fuel is something that you must keep in mind as well.
If you do your homework well and be honest with yourself, you will save yourself a lot of headaches down the road.
Once you are clear on what you can afford according to your budget, it is time to look for the car that fits in your budget. There is no better place to start looking than the Internet. I'm not saying you should buy from the Internet. Just look at your local dealer websites. Most of these sites have a search engine somewhere on their page. These search engines allow you to sometimes enter the amount you can afford.
