Average repair?

Please consider a Dodge Neon, Ford Taurus or other vehicle more suitable for your budget.

Will you DIY?

All your questions point towards getting a small, light, mass-produced car.

Doubt they exist in Sweden. Don't think they do here. (A lot of American cars would not sell here, being unsuitable for several reasons, so are not offered.)

Can easily equal or exceed the value of the car. It is a big, big mistake to buy a cheap semi-exotic luxury car unless you are good at DIY and/or have a healthy bank account.
