The 1981 Dodge Omni: before you buy

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 1981 Dodge Omni for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Thinking about the 1981 Dodge Omni? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.

What to check on the Omni

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

Engine and fuel

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

Size and space

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

Who the Omni suits

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

A longer test drive

Rent first, buy later: a week with the Omni answers the big questions. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Rent the Omni for a week and see how it fits your life.

The cost of driving it

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.

Picking a year and a trim

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
