Car financing: the 1990 Dodge Colt
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 1990 Dodge Colt 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. Here is what to know about the 1990 Dodge Colt before buying one.
Before you sign for the Colt
NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
The figures, translated
It is powered by 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.
At 8.1 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 24 litres of fuel. Every 100 km costs about $12.56 in fuel at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Best uses
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.
How big it is
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. At 340 litres, the trunk fits about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
A longer test drive
Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Colt answers the big questions. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.
Year and trim
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
What it costs to run
A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. 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.
Next step
Ask us anything about renting before you buy.
Rent it for a week before you buy
