Thinking of buying the 2003 Daewoo Lanos?

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2003 Daewoo Lanos for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before buying the 2003 Daewoo Lanos, read what the figures say and how to try one first.

A buyer's checks

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

Reading the spec sheet

It uses the 1.6L 4-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

A combined rating of 9.8 L/100 km works out to about 29 litres per 300 km. A 300 km weekend costs about $45.57 in energy at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,800 a year for 15,000 miles.

Space, size and seats

Being a compact car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives.

Who the Lanos suits

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

A longer test drive

Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent the Lanos for a week and see how it fits your life.

Money matters

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. The EPA estimates US$2,800 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $15.19 in fuel.

Which one to look for

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
