Thinking of buying the 1982 Ford C800?

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 1982 Ford C800 for sale by us right now. Before buying the 1982 Ford C800, read what the figures say and how to try one first.

A buyer's checks

Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.

The numbers in plain words

The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.

Best uses

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.

Size and space

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

Try before you buy

Rent the C800 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Try the C800 on your commute, then decide. Rent first, buy later: a week with the C800 answers the big questions.

Narrowing it down

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. Within the 1982 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.

The cost of driving it

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. 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.

Questions first?

Tell us the car you are considering, and we will help where we can.

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 1982 Ford C800 from us first.
