how to buy a used car when you know nothing about cars and have no one to help?

My grandfather brought my brother a second hand car, i have the money to buy my own, but he refuses to help me. I do not yet drive, but because of my living situation, I have to move, and i think it’s important for me to have my own car. I know that once I have my learners and I have done some private lessons, I can ask for an exemption on my log book and go for my p’s test. So, I’m trying to find a car now. I have up to 3,500 dollars available and need an auto. when I have my p’s, I plan on only using it when I really have too. (no public transport available, 40+c days in summer, when it’s raining etc) as I generally get around without a car most of the time now. So it wont see heavy usage. But I’m stuck.

Text from behind paywall: ONE of Brisbane’s fast food institutions has permanently closed its doors, much to the dismay of its thousands of loyal customers.

Mactaggarts Place walkway

Residents draw to the attention of the Lord Mayor and Councillors to the matter of the re-establishment of the public walkway connecting Vernon Terrace and Riverwalk that passes through Mactaggarts Place, 53 Vernon Terrace, Teneriffe. The conversion of Mactaggarts Place was approved by Council in 1994. As a part of the approved design the scheme included a publicly accessible landscaped area and a walkway connecting Vernon Terrace to Riverwalk. The approved scheme was completed in 1995. A condition of the 1994 development approval requires that the approved landscaping scheme is maintained for as long as the development exists.

On 30 June 2016 the body corporate of Mactaggarts Place installed a series

I wonder if it was part of open home? one day I was driving around in the suburbs lost looking for a garage sale and I came across this castle handbuilt presumably by the owner in a totally residential Street and not even on a big block he had a sign above the door saying “princess wanted.” Questions: Does anyone anyone know anyone who went and offered to be his princess? How did that pan out? Does anyone know the guy? What will happen when he passes away we will this become like the Kingaroy House of Rocks? https://imgur.com/gallery/eCcRE submitted by /u/Gatoblanconz [link] [comments]
