The 2000 Buick Regal: before you buy
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2000 Buick Regal for sale by us right now. Here is what to know about the 2000 Buick Regal before buying one.
What to check on the Regal
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. NHTSA has 184 owner complaints on file, mostly about electrical system, engine and engine cooling and steering. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
Engine and fuel
Under the hood: the 3.8L 6-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Combined fuel use is 11.2 L/100 km: about 34 litres for 300 km. Every 100 km costs about $17.36 in fuel at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,200 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
What to expect from the Regal
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. NHTSA's Canadian figures put it at 4.98 m long. Check the size of a tight parking spot. EPA lists 481 litres of luggage space, enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.
When the Regal makes sense
It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.
Try before you buy
Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.
What it costs to run
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$3,200 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $173.60 at our price setting.
Year and trim
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
Let us know
Rent it for a week, then decide: send a request with your dates.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2000 Buick Regal from us first.
Find me this car
Tell us your budget and when you want to buy; we look for a 2000 Buick Regal for you and reply within one business day.

NHTSA lists 7 recall campaigns for it, in the table on this page. Ask for proof each was fixed.
