Please help lol

Hi everyone,

I have just joined and am really excited to hopefully learn all new kinds of stuff.

My dilemma is this, a very basic one I know.

What scope should I get to start with?

Now obviously, as a beginner, I would prefer not spend a bucket load of money. I'm trying to look at around the $150, but would possibly go as high as $200.

I would like to do more than just observe the moon, more hoping to try my luck at planets and bright nebulae, if possible of course.
I would have to travel with the scope though, not far, roughly 3-4km's by car, so travelling with the scope also needs to be taken into account.

Hope this isn't to much at once, but I am at the stage where I want to go out a buy one tomorrow, so I can just start
