Travelling by Car in South America

Hi,

Me and my friends are about to undertake a 3 month trip from Rio de Janeiro into argentina, chile, Bolivia, peru, Ecuador and finish in columbia.

originally we were going to take public transport but i want to buy a car out there so that we have more freedom and don't miss out on anything in between stops. Gives me more of a sense of adventure.

However a number of things have sprung up. i have a number of questions to ask anyone who can help!

how worthwhile would a car be? what car would serve me best?
Where is the cheapest/easiest place to buy a car?
If bought there what documents (how easy, or if at all possible) will be needed to get into the next country?

thanks, any help much appreciated! i know there are a lot of questions. my first proper trip and cannot wait

Fred
