Thinking of buying the 2001 Bentley Arnage?

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2001 Bentley Arnage for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. This page puts the 2001 Bentley Arnage in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.

Before you sign for the Arnage

A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.

The numbers in plain words

It is powered by the 6.8L 8-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

Expect about 59 litres for every 300 km, going by its 19.6 L/100 km combined rating. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $34.30, and a 300 km weekend about $102.90. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$6,850 a year for 15,000 miles.

Who the Arnage suits

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size.

What the Arnage is like

Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. Its 340 litre trunk is enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Rent it for a week first

Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Drive the Arnage on your commute before you commit to it. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Arnage answers the big questions.

Choosing the right one

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.

The cost of driving it

Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $343 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
