Buying a car in Central

CarmaCars is a rental company; renting a car first is how we help buyers. Banks and credit unions arrange car loans; CarmaCars does not, but we can rent you a car while you sort one out. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can bridge the time while you arrange one with your bank.

Rent it before you buy it

A rental shows you the small things: the seat after an hour, the blind spots, the trunk with your stroller in it. Rent the model, take it on the roads you know, and decide with confidence. Renting the model you are thinking of buying, for a day or a week, is a real test drive on your own roads. Delivery to Central is part of the service, so the test drive starts at home.

Questions to ask

Find out whether the car has open recalls before you agree on a price. Ask whether the car has been in an accident and how it was repaired. A Safety Standards Certificate is needed in Ontario to register a used car you buy. For a used car, ask for the vehicle's service records and look up its recall history by the VIN.

A car meanwhile

Selling privately can take time; a rental means no rush. Use a rental to try a different kind of car before you commit to one. There is no long contract, so a rental fits around any purchase date.

Getting around Central

What you need to rent in Central

Drivers must be 18 or older at pickup. A young driver fee applies by age: 18 to 20, $35 a day and 21 to 25, $20 a day; from 26 there is none.

Licence: an Ontario G2 and G licence, valid for the whole rental. A licence from another province or country, an international one with its permit included, is accepted on a request and checked by a person before we confirm.

Third-party liability coverage is included in every rate. For damage to the car you need one of these before pickup: OPCF 27 on your own auto policy, Your credit card’s rental coverage and The CarmaCars Protection Plan. A claim on our fleet policy costs you the $2,500 deductible.

The deposit is a hold on your card, $500 to $5,000 depending on the car, never a charge.

At pickup, bring your original licence and the card you paid with.

Book at least 2 hours before pickup, for delivery to Central or pickup in Toronto.
