Certified Pre-Owned in Guide, NC

Before you buy in Guide

We do not sell or finance cars. We rent them, by the day, the week or the month. Tell us the car you are looking for and we will help where we can, and you can rent a similar car first. A rental of the same model for a week shows how it fits your commute, your parking and your family.

Why rent first

Renting the model you are thinking of buying, for a day or a week, is a real test drive on your own roads. Renting the model first is a simple way to avoid buying the wrong car. Testing the car for a week shows how it handles your parking, your passengers and your bags.

What to check before you buy

Check open recalls with Transport Canada or the maker, using the VIN. 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. Drive the car on the roads you use every day, at the times you usually drive.

Between cars

There is no long contract: each booking runs up to 365 days and can be renewed. Use a rental to try a different kind of car before you commit to one. Need a car while a dealer prepares yours? Rent one by the week.

Before you plan

There is no CarmaCars office, lot or branch in Guide. Guide lies about 1,077 km from our location in Toronto, well outside our delivery area of about 250 km.

Our rentals start and end around Toronto; a test week has to begin there. Shopping in Guide? A rental from Toronto only makes sense if your trip starts here. Send a request about Guide, and we reply with a clear yes or no. Prices here are in Canadian dollars, not US dollars.
