Thinking of buying the 2004 Scion xA?
No 2004 Scion xA is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. Buying the 2004 Scion xA is a big decision; here is the information we have.
Recalls and complaints
In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. NHTSA has 14 owner complaints on file, mostly about engine and engine cooling, tires and unknown or other. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.
Specs, explained
Power comes from the 1.5L 4-cylinder, driving through a 4-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Expect about 23 litres for every 300 km, going by its 7.8 L/100 km combined rating. For 1,000 km, budget about $120.90 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,250 a year for 15,000 miles.
Who rents the xA
It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
Living with the xA
As a small car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. EPA lists 340 litres of luggage space, enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Rent it for a week first
Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. A week with the xA answers more than any brochure. Rent the xA for a week and see how it fits your life.
Choosing the right one
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. 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.
Running costs
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$2,250 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
