Thinking of buying the 2003 Bentley Arnage?
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2003 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 2003 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
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. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
Engine and fuel
The 6.8L 8-cylinder turbo with rear-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
It is rated at 21.4 L/100 km combined, so budget about 64 litres for 300 km. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $112.35 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$7,450 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Space, size and seats
As a large sedan, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. At 368 litres, the trunk fits about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Who it is for
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends.
Rent it for a week first
Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the Arnage for a week and see how it fits your life. Drive the Arnage on your commute before you commit to it.
The cost of driving it
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$7,450 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Year and trim
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
Talk to a person
Ask about renting first, and buy with a clear head.
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 2003 Bentley Arnage from us first.
