Recalls and complaints
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Owners filed 15 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, power train and air bags; have those parts checked. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.
What the specs mean
The 2.3L 5-cylinder turbo does the work, through a 5-speed manual. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
At 11.8 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 35 litres of fuel. Every 100 km costs about $20.65 in fuel at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$4,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Who it is for
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends.
What to expect from the C70
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. With 227 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.
Try before you buy
If the C70 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.
Which one to look for
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Within the 2004 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
Money matters
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. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
