Default WELDING MACHINE?

Hi friends, i need your advice please about a welding machine...

After a lot of searching i ended up that the perfect welding machine for my case is

a. Tig AC/DC HF with pulse function, or

b. MIG with Pulse function.

The reason i ended up at these two weld machines is that i want to weld both st. steel and alouminum...

Please tell me wich welding machine to buy (I don't need a machine with more than 160-180 Amp).
I can spent only 1000 euros and i can buy used from Uk if it has good technical support..

id look for something used, or I guess a diversion.

A MIG machine with a pulse feature will certainly cost well over 2k. And it isnt really ideal or automotive fab.

and since this is honda-tech, I would assume to make his own car-related parts. aka automotive fab. I didnt say so he can open up a fab shop.
