Thinking of buying the Buick Somerset?

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the Buick Somerset for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Before buying the Buick Somerset, read what the figures say and how to try one first.

Before you sign for the Somerset

Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

Engine and fuel

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

Best uses

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

What the Somerset is like

As a car, it is easy to drive and park in the city.

Rent it for a week first

If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent the Somerset for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. A test week in the Somerset tells you more than any review.

Year and trim

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.

What it costs to run

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.

Send a request

A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.

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 Buick Somerset from us first.

Buying the Buick Somerset

Does CarmaCars sell the Buick Somerset?

Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.

Can I rent a Buick Somerset before I buy one?

Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.

Where do the figures come from?

Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
