Looking at buying some sort of a used vehicle later this summer, and I wondered about getting parts for vehicles. I see all kinds of brands on supercarros, from GM's, to VW's, Toyotas, Hondas, Skodas, etc. I used to work in automotive parts part-time, and I know in North America it was hard to get parts for some vehicles. What brands would you avoid getting? What are the makes to get parts for? I'll be based in the Punta Cana area. Any good mechanics in that area that have a good reputation?

As sort of an add on, any recommends for a vehicle? I'll be mostly putting around the east, but will go into SD at times, and even in the limited driving I've done in SD, I can't get over the crazy gaps between the roadways and the parking lots. I'm concerned a car's suspension will be wrecked by a wrong move. My budget for a vehicle is tight (max 150,000 DOP).

Any recommends for an insurance provider who can provide theft insurance?

If you can help me out, that'd be great!

Thanks!
