Go with what Yellow Dave has suggested and you can't go wrong.
The only thing I'd add if you haven't got one already is a pressure washer (might take you over budget though...). I have a Nillfisk C110, which I paid £49.99 for. It's cheap and cheerful, but more than good enough for use on cars.

Trying to do it on a budget, maybe leave the snow foam lance for now. Rinse, spray on a good pre wash then pressure rinse is almost if not as good as foaming.
Getting into polishers is a slippery slope, a DA is best for beginners. See how you get on with filler heavy products first to see if you're happy with the finish
