I am moving to the US (Chicago) from Australia next year and are looking at various types of cars to consider purchasing. I need a car that doesn't chew through fuel, is relatively cheap (less than $3000), has cheap registration and are a pleasure to drive. Any suggestions?

Unless you get a used car or use the $3000 on a down payment for a new car, I would suggest a Toyota Corolla. Compact but has great mileage and lasts forever.
PS- Sorry to say that I do not know of any car ( new or used) that is $3000 or less, unless it is a lemon. BUT then again you may have luck on your hands.
I wish you the best of luck on your relocation. I hope to visit Australia one day (by way of a cruise). Take care.

Without a doubt you should consider a toyota corolla. They are good, dependable transportation. You should be able to buy anywhere from a 1998-2000 for less than $3000. Good luck!

don't get a m/c for the reason which you elect for to keep funds. On in simple terms gas mileage a 1984-ish Honda CRX HF kicks all finished-length motorcycles' butt on gas mileage. maximum finished-length motorcycles in basic terms get 30-40 MPG. whilst you're highway-in basic terms commuting a 4 hundred cc scooter ought to keep funds yet they are extra risky (smaller wheels, much less administration with "chair" seating, much less ability). bike tires do no longer final as long as motor vehicle tires and different upkeep expenses arise quicker (e.g. valve regulate, oil exchange). some motorcycles are costly to insure (almost something sporty). you like stable maintaining outfits on a bike and that's no longer low priced the two, given your rock-backside funds. no longer in basic terms that yet driving in a hundred+ degree climate is extra desirable-warm (suitable approximately the place the breeze heats you up rather of cools you).

Toyota Camry. Good on gas, very reliable, and if maintained well, they will last well past 100,000 miles. I have seen quite a few go past 200,000 miles.
Go to www.cars.com to check out reviews, do research, and search for cars for sale.

I'd recommend a used Honda or Toyota.
