Cars - we all want them, we all dream about having them, and some of us will spend big parts of our lives saving our earnings to have them. Although rising petrol prices and road taxes are making cars a more expensive means of transport it hasn't stopped us from wanting to have our own set of wheels. One of the social demographics which is most interested in buying cars is the student population (as well as recent school leavers and other young people).
Students have a small and sometimes even non-existent income, meaning that they are on constant look-out for a bargain. The key is to balance the need for a low-cost car with a suitable level of safety, an acceptable degree of fuel efficiency, and the general 'health' of the car. Cheap cars often cost more in the long run, especially if they frequently break down or fail to pass their MOT. As such it can be worth investing a little bit more at the outset to ensure that expenses will be kept to a minimum further down the line. Another way to look at this cost versus quality dilemma is to remember that higher cost cars are usually in better condition and will likely last for longer - perhaps taking you through until you are in a full-time job. The real secret is to be intelligent about your purchasing, even if you are offered what seems to be an incredibly tempting deal. Research, research and more research is the best advice any student car buyer can be given.
