What to check on the DeVille

The numbers in plain words

The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.

Who rents the DeVille

It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

Space, size and seats

As a large sedan, it is easy to drive and park in the city.

Drive it on your own roads

If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. A test week in the DeVille tells you more than any review. Try the DeVille on your commute, then decide.

Which one to look for

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.

The cost of driving it

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. 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.

Still deciding?

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 1982 Cadillac DeVille from us first.
