Should I buy one of these cars?

2004 Holden Barina XC Auto MY04.5 136,000km $3300 (the hatch doesn’t work) Or 2005 Hyundai Accent GL Auto MY04 125,000km $3500 I only have $4000, would you recommend these cars or a car that I should go for? It will be my first car and i plan on driving to work and maybe going for the occasional drive up a mountain. I prefer a car that won’t cost much to maintain but I understand I can’t have everything. Thank you I am really bad with this sort of stuff. submitted by /u/Shooting_Darts701 [link] [comments]

So wondering if other people are noticing the same? submitted by /u/HeatherSmithAU [link] [comments]

I get the feeling his wife is gonna take the kids and leave soon which would leave him almost friendless and down and out. His mental state could possibly lead down the path of suicide. How do sell the idea of professional help? It’s too deep for my amateur attempts at providing emotional support or advice. I
