Thinking of buying the 2008 Mazda 5?
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2008 Mazda 5 for sale by us right now. Here is the 2008 Mazda 5 for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.
What to check on the 5
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. 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.
The figures, translated
It uses the 2.3L 4-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
It is rated 9.8 L/100 km combined: about 29 litres every 300 km. Expect about $15.19 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,800 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Best uses
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
Room inside
As a minivan, it puts space for people and luggage first.
Drive it on your own roads
Rent first, buy later: a week with the 5 answers the big questions. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. A test week in the 5 tells you more than any review.
Picking a year and a trim
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
What it costs to run
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$2,800 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Talk to a person
Rent it for a week, then decide: send a request with your dates.
