[The Lambrusco Kid]

Ok, all the cars I had since now were given to me by uncles/brother etc. I never had to buy a car before.

I need to buy a new car and I need tips on how to negociate, what I can or cannot do etc.

I'm thinking about these models in particuliar:

Hyundai Accent
Mazda MP5
Ford Focus (hatch)
Honda Civic

I just want a basic model, nothing fancy with a manual Transmission.

So what's the best choice. I want something reliable and easy to maintain. But not to expensive.

Thanks!
