2.3k might be too high since you have no experience. Diploma current starting pay ranges from 1.7-2.1k. As for transport allowance, usually company got fix policy not up for negotiation.

If I were you, I would ask the interviewer the salary range for this position and work towards that, if you would like to get a foot into this industry.
Having a vehicle does not justify that you can be in sales line. Always remember that.
Fresh from the force will cast doubts on a lot of recruiter. First of all, zero experience in sales. Zero experience in private sectors and markets. Now, tell me how can you justify in getting into the company in the first place.
Humble might be the only way to proof yourself.

Zuby.in/salary
Generally, the salary depends upon which department you belong to. Some of the factors that should be considered are listed below:
1. The salary of a trainee in R&D department is different from that of a trainee in Quality department.
2. Your credentials also play a vital role in the salary. The more your qualification match with the job profile, more is the chance of you earning more money.
Check out this website: zuby.in/salary. It gives a detailed description of the current salary status.

It really depends on how much you want the job. If you want to be at least competitive to the fresh diploma grads, stating $1.7k + $500 car allowance is a safe bet.
But you no relevant exp & there is always a stigma for regulars, so if you want the job just lowering pay is not enough, need to demonstrate the right attitude during interview
