Auto loans: the 1990 Dodge Colt

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 1990 Dodge Colt for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. For anyone shopping for the 1990 Dodge Colt, here are the facts that matter.

A buyer's checks

NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. NHTSA has 12 owner complaints on file, mostly about seat belts, electrical system and structure. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.

The numbers in plain words

Its powertrain is the 1.5L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 24 litres, from its 8.1 L/100 km rating. In money, 1,000 km costs about $125.60 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,300 a year for 15,000 miles.

Size and space

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. The EPA measures its luggage space at 340 litres, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

Drive it on your own roads

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. A week with the Colt answers more than any brochure. Drive the Colt on your commute before you commit to it.

What it costs to run

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$2,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $12.56 in fuel.

Which one to look for

Within the 1990 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. 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.

Next step

A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.
