The 1998 Volvo FE for buyers

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 1998 Volvo FE 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 1998 Volvo FE, read what the figures say and how to try one first.

Before you sign for the FE

Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

What the specs mean

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

Inside and out

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk.

Who it is for

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends.

Drive it on your own roads

Try the FE on your commute, then decide. A test week in the FE tells you more than any review. Rent first, buy later: a week with the FE answers the big questions.

What it costs to run

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.

Narrowing it down

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. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
