Hi Everyone (waves) Newbie Girlie To The Group

A Place to introduce yourself and say hello! - Please do not post questions here. If you are unsure of where to post a question, please post it in the General section and one of the FOG staff will move it to the correct place

Hi everyone,
hope you are all well, I'm Alexandra, Alex for short 24yrs from Oxford :)
I'm new to the group and looking into buying my first Frontera, I really love the look of it and want to get myself a 2.0 3dr Sport but am having difficulty in finding one round my area in my limited budget that doesn't look it wouldn't make another 100 miles let alone last a few years.
I'm not a big traveler and only clock about 3000 miles a year on a car so a higher mileage one is no problem for me but I'm worried about spending out the money and ending up with a lemon as I'm new altogether to the 4x4's.
I really thought I had a good chance with one from what I thought was a really nice bloke, very pleasant and willing to let me see it first, and was in my price range as he just wanted to get rid of it, but when the time came he had sold it right under my nose.
So I am out on the look out again and wondered if anyone can give me some advice on what to look out for I don't mind what year frontera and if it has up to 100,000 on the clock, but its hard to know what I am looking for and what is the right price to pay.
Thanks for reading.
Alex :)
