I would advise having some lessons with a specialist classical teacher either in person or online, at least at first. It will help massively to have a good basic technique from the start to build on.
I also like the Youtube channel called 'This is Classical Guitar', there are some good lessons and exercises on there.
And no you don't need an expensive guitar to start, there are good budget options, just make sure you get one that stays in tune and plays well, or budget for a set up.
Good luck, let us know how you get on!
Going to a local music shop tonight to pick up a hard case for my 335, so will check out the 2nd hand section while I'm there.

He mentioned that he'd learned to play classical guitar when he was young but hadn't played such for years, as playing in bands had become his main interest through his school years.
I asked him to teach me to play some pieces as there was an old beater classical in the flat. He taught me to play Lagrime by Francesca Tarrega (which I can still play now ... sort of) ... but then out of nowhere, one drunken night he just sat down and played this:
I was blown away! I still love this piece and always get nostalgic flashbacks to those happy days.
I think you should just embrace it and enjoy it as long as you can ... it'll just add to your repertoire and your enjoyment of music. It's also a genuine challenge
Nothing fancy, it's an Ortega student starter pack: guitar, spare strings, clip on tuner, tools, stand, strap, and the worst gig bag I've ever seen. But to be fair the guitar plays nice and sounds right to my ears. Think it's 3/4 sized. Certainly good enough to get me going.
It also came with some plectrums which was unexpected.

Great playing, tho!
I also bought a book from Amazon of easy classical pieces and exercises. It's in tab and notation which I thought would be ideal, but I'm using the tab and ignoring the notation which kind of defeats the point tbh. So I'll shelve that untill a later date when my notation reading is better.

So far it's simple melodies, ie Londons burning, but the detail and complexity builds through the books. So as well as the notes to play it covers the timing and duration of the notes, and dynamics.
