Buying the 1995 Buick Skylark
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 1995 Buick Skylark for sale by us right now. Before you buy the 1995 Buick Skylark, see the figures and the checks worth doing.
Before you sign for the Skylark
A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
Specs, explained
Power: the 2.3L 4-cylinder; drive: 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.
Expect about 32 litres for every 300 km, going by its 10.7 L/100 km combined rating. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $49.77 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,050 a year for 15,000 miles.
Good uses for the Skylark
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
What to expect from the Skylark
Being a compact car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. It is 4.80 m from end to end. Check the size of a tight parking spot. With 368 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
A longer test drive
Rent first, buy later: a week with the Skylark answers the big questions. A test week in the Skylark tells you more than any review. If the Skylark is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.
Year and trim
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
The cost of driving it
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $165.90 at our price setting. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
