Buying the Sterling 825
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no Sterling 825 for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Before you buy the Sterling 825, here is what the figures say and what to look at.
Before you sign for the 825
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
What the figures tell you
No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.
Good uses for the 825
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.
Space and size
Being a compact car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives.
Try before you buy
Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent the 825 first, and buy only if it fits your life. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.
Narrowing it down
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. The years table on this page shows where the 825 changed. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
The cost of driving it
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Ask us
Rent it for a week, then decide: send a request with your dates.
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 Sterling 825 from us first.

Buying the Sterling 825
Does CarmaCars sell the Sterling 825?
Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.
Can I rent a Sterling 825 before I buy one?
Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.
Where do the figures come from?
Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
