Financing a car for a new job????? Yes or no??

Financing a car for a new job!

Hi guys,
I’m doing automatic. I know how to drive as have had many many lessons but my driving instructor kept cancelling my lessons and EVEN MY DRIVING TEST! He was unreliable! There’s no other automatic driver instructors in my area - I can’t do a test in anyone’s car as it has to be automatic. I have 2.3 k but don’t want a cheap cheap car as I will be travelling 50 mins to Luton airport (fingers crossed) for cabin crew!
My only option is to finance a car. I’m almost 20 and I work full time at mc Donald’s atm and need a car for this too as I’m having to rely on my dad to pick me up as the busses don’t run late. I get the bus to work and this is because we live in a very small town - no regular transport and no train station.
I was looking into cinch but the cars were way too expensive. I think a car that’s 5k is reasonable as I can try and pay it off! Is that allowed
?
I’ve been accepted into the finance option with carmoney from motors (a car website)
For this specific car

the link is above.
Would this car be a good choice? I can’t go see as can’t get there ! Maybe I’ll go see it at some point but it may be gone by then. I really like it.
But then there may be issues with it. What do u guys think?

So for how old the car is the mileage is good, And polos in my experience are very reliable and cheap to run cars. Dealerships will do an MOT before selling you a car and in order for them to sell it to you, that MOT should come back with no issues on the car or if there is, the dealership will fix it before selling it because no one will buy a car whose MOT didn't have no faults.
If you're worried ask the car dealership to give warranty on the car, this will be included in the price and if something were to happen to the car, the warranty company would fix it either for free or a reduced fee.
