Auto Loans in Summerside, NS

Before you buy in Summerside

CarmaCars does not sell cars. We rent them, which makes us a good place to try a model before you buy. We do not check credit for loans or lend money; renting needs a licence, an identity check and a card. Banks and credit unions arrange car loans; CarmaCars does not, but we can rent you a car while you sort one out.

Rent it before you buy it

Many buyers rent the car they are considering for a weekend before they visit a dealer. Try the car on a highway drive, a grocery run and a tight parking spot before you sign. A rental shows you the small things: the seat after an hour, the blind spots, the trunk with your stroller in it.

A buyer's checklist

Check the tires and brakes: replacing them adds to the real price. Make sure every warning light goes out after the car starts. Check open recalls with Transport Canada or the maker, using the VIN. Look for rust under the doors and around the wheel arches.

While you shop

You can switch to a different car at the end of a booking, which helps if you are comparing. Rent by the week while you compare, and stop the day your next car arrives. Weekly and monthly rates make a rental a sensible bridge between cars.
