Auto loans: the 1985 Subaru Wagon
No 1985 Subaru Wagon is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before you buy the 1985 Subaru Wagon, see the figures and the checks worth doing.
A buyer's checks
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
The figures, translated
It runs the 1.8L 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.
The EPA rates it at 9.2 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 28 litres. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $14.26. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,650 a year for 15,000 miles.
Room inside
As a van, it puts space for people and luggage first. The EPA measures its luggage space at 991 litres, roughly bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
When the Wagon makes sense
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
A longer test drive
Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. A week with the Wagon answers more than any brochure. If the Wagon is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.
Money matters
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $142.60 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,650 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $14.26 in fuel.
Which one to look for
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
