<human>: I currently own a 1999 Toyota Camry, and as the years go by I am needing more replacement jobs due to the age of my car. Currently, I was quoted $800-$1000 (depends on the severity) of the power steering pump, coolant reservoir system, and suspension issues. I bought my car for $5000 and have done at least $1200 in repairs in a span of 2 years. My mother presented me an offer to put a down payment for a car and I take care of the monthly and insurance. 

Here's my money situation.
I work part-time for $14/hour at an after school facility, so my income fluctuates from $800-$1300 a month. I pay for rent $300, monthly expenses budget of $210, insurance of $80, and the rest are savings or emergency. Should I call it quits with the repairs of my current car and take my mom's offer of getting a new car? My plan is to get a fuel-efficient car (hybrid?) so I can cut costs on gas on my daily 40-minute commute everyday roundtrip. 

Thoughts?
