The 1995 Ford Windstar for buyers

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 1995 Ford Windstar for sale by us right now. This page sets out the 1995 Ford Windstar for buyers, in plain words.

Before you sign for the Windstar

There are 6 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Owners filed 3,326 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine and engine cooling, power train and service brakes; have those parts checked. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

The figures, translated

Power comes from the 3.0L 6-cylinder, driving through a 4-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

Fuel use is rated 12.4 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 37 litres. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $192.20. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,550 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

The Windstar in everyday use

It is the kind of vehicle that makes a family trip calmer.

When the Windstar makes sense

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

Rent it for a week first

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

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.

Year and trim

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Within the 1995 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.

Your move

A rental request is free; the offer shows the full price.

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 1995 Ford Windstar from us first.
