Don't worry, it'll be ok in the end, a year from now when you have spent a little bit and have a nice coupe, you'll be glad you got it and the money spent won't matter so much, hopefully.
At least after owning one, you'll know a hell of a lot more about the cars (I know I will) like how they should ride and handle, what to look for mechanically and body-wise, what to "feel" for when driving it and a load of other stuff, that can help seperate the good from the bad.
If you get another in the future, you'll be able to pick up on a lot of things very quickly (obviously not an impending belt failure but we're not all mechanics!) but there is always an element of gambling on any old second-hand motor, no matter how much homework you have done.

here are the pics of the lovely car before it broke the aux belt. It is now going to Powerfiat to get the problem fixed properly:
