Agreed, it needs to go to a good shop to be diagnosed and repaired. After that it will probably serve you very well.

Be sure the shop is reputable, and ask to have them walk you through what they want to do and why. Be sure it makes sense to you. Have them give you a set of safety glasses (will be required) and then take you onto their floor with the car in the air, let you see everything.

You could also sell it and get a different car that's been treated better. Someone dumped their poorly maintained problematic car and unfortunately you bought it. As they say "lesson learned".
