I think I need to find a car...

My son has been driving my Corolla and he got in an accident last week. No injuries but the passenger side doors were damaged. He took it to the body shop yesterday and they told him it might be totaled. And I realized, of course it will be totaled. It's a '93 Corolla with 225,000 miles. Getting it washed costs almost more than it's worth.

We won't know for sure until Monday or Tuesday but I'm assuming we need to find another car. My experience has been to drive a car until it starts to need too many repairs and then spend a lot of time thinking about what I want and finally buying a new one. Now I need to find something used that will be reliable but fairly inexpensive (cheap). And I need to do it quickly.

Where do I start?
